I believe in a more intense propaganda, like in the front some
sensacionalism with facts

Dvorak (pronounce xxx)
"it can improve your tiping speed/accuracy by aprox. x%"
"it can free you from repetitive strain..."
it... bla bla

and on the back of the card a sensationalist image of the dvorak keyboard
layout with colors by most typed keys, that something like resemble a ball
of light coming out of the centre, this layouts are widely spread on the
internet, and with some photoshop you could make a beautiful version, that
inspires people towards it.

Direct propaganda isn't the best way to go when you want to make someone
take a step like this, you should make them desire it, like its futuristic,
technological... imagine getting a card like this yourself, facts first,
super image showing it like some kind of ball of light growing in the center
of your keyboard...

Well, thats juts my opinion and sorry for the horrible english today since i
just woke up..

I believe you dont need to put more information because everyone can easily
go to the internet and search for it, and the fact that this person actually
did some research on her own is a WIN for us, she gets curious and go there
and search, being now "inspired" by the card, and "amazed" by the
information she finds... great chance we win another colleague :D
