Considering the advancement in technology why is
the
qwerty layout still in existence? Stupid if you
ask me.....


That's easy - because so many people are so used to QWERTY. It's not really
stupid at all - there was a very real reason for that layout originally.
Once it becomes the standard and so many people are so familiar with it,
it's only logical that it will take time to displace it.
