Hipstamatic : QWERTY

I'd never really thought about it before, never really had a need to, but why are the keys on a keyboard set out the way they are ?

This is Alice at work giving it the beans in the typing department, what she had actually typed was "shhfiuehherfyo8cvndoifeoiur8e9fuosjfkuey3yrwhsdjho"

I think you'll agree that it's either the name of an Icelandic fjord or she needs typing lessons.

I was still with the moaning faced whingers today but they were somehow better, that's probably as the computers were off at work for a while.
