That's usually only the first couple of drills, when you're learning the home row.

Since all of the vowels are your left home row, you'll be making words as soon as you've learned the home rows. Unlike QWERTY.

Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven.

This accursed system is making me go insane...

XP has a little menu on the taskbar. I can switch it with my mouse. Excellent for weaning me off QWERTY.

I'm gonna try dvorak. It'll piss my sister off when I tell her she can use my computer.

And even using QWERTY a touch-typer could probably have three sentences done by the time it takes you to to write half of one.

It's folks who think you don't have to know how to type to use a computer that facilitated the degeneration of a large portion of the online community into brainelss drones spouting idiocies like "WHO R U? Y R U TLAKING 2 Mi?"
