Discussion Ask HN: How long does it take to learn a new keyboard layout? I type at 130 WPM with QWERTY. Two questions:1. For those who have done it, how long does it take to learn a new keyboard layout (e.g. DVORAK, others) and exceed your previous speed.2. Is switching back and forth easy to do (like speaking two languages fluently)? 35 points ryeguy_24 8 years ago 67 comments
