A Dvorak keyboard is one in which the keys are rearranged so that
the most-used keys are on the "home" row.  The use of a Dvorak
keyboard results in faster speed and reduced errors by the
typist.  For IBM systems, there are two ways to go -- you can
purchase a keyboard from:

       Keytronic IBM Keyboard
       Box 14687
       Spokane, Washington  99214    ($256.00)
       509-928-8000

       Maxiswitch IBM Keyboard
       9697 East River Road
       Minneapolis, Minnesota  55433   ($150.00)
       612-755-7660

Alternatively, you can reconfigure the standard IBM keyboard that
came with your system in software. 

      ACCUTYPE
      Acu Business System
      819 West 6th Street
      Winona, Minnesota  55987  ($24.95)
      (507) 452-4887  

I haven't used *ANY* of these systems myself, so THIS IS NOT A
REVIEW.
