It is cheaper and more productive to design machines to fit men rather than try and force men to fit machines. (Frank W. Gilbreth)

That sums it up for me. We have a limited lifespan. On those occasions when we feel the urge to be productive, why not make those occasions as productive as we can?

• Shipman's Brief History of the Dvorak Simplified Keyboard (DSK)
• The Dvorak Simplified Keyboard: Forty Years of Frustration by Robert Parkinson. This seminal article appeared in Computers and Automation magazine in 1972 and inspired me to convert to the Dvorak keyboard. It is also a useful commentary on human inertia.
