You won't believe this, but QWERTY keyboards are pretty much the standard because they are more efficient. I know that another type of keyboard is out there, and is mostly used to kill keylogging (hackers use it to track what you type and then steal your passwords) and to stand out from the crowd. I type at a 60+ wpm speed with QWERTY, and I can type mentally with a QWERTY. I simply can't switch without a little time, and that is what's happening now. I agree that we need to view every option, but most people will not come out of their "safe" shell where they know everything. Linux might become popular after Microsoft goes bankrupt or when it advertises. I've heard of Linux, but I don't know anything about it. I agree that we need to change keyboards and OS's and everything else. Did you know that the flying car was invented in the 50's and actually inspired the Jetson's car? Yeah, but nobody will fund it, so it's just a prototype. Also, that colony on the Moon could have happened before the Y2K generation was born, but NASA was cut from funding. Should we blame the government for these cuts from important materials? Well, think about this: Scientists have been able to genetically engineer DNA for a century, but what has stopped us from doing it?
