      @jojoax I picked it up because of my tendonitis, and because of the estimates of being "up to 95% faster than QWERTY!" that I'd heard. I've gained about 5 WPM over my QWERTY peak, and it's really only been a year and a half, I think... As opposed to. . . 14 years (?) with QWERTY. Doubt I'll ever see 130 WPM; I just don't think that fast. :p

            @scribus Yeah. one of the reasons I've considered switching is so that I don't develop any RSI .. For the time being I'm just working on typing with good form so that I don't experience any discomfort which could lead to an RSI.

              @pony heh. Mine *came* from typing with allegedly-good form. I should have known better than to do something painful, even if it was how the 1970s VHS said to do it. =/

                @scribus yeah. xP I've developed a healthy mistrust of educational institutions over the years thanks to things like that.

                  @pony Yeah, you really do need to weigh things out. Oh, well. Such is life.

            @chiefanchor I don't foresee needing anything but QWERTY luckily. :)
