I took a brief dabble in Dvorak about a year and a half ago. I liked it..= =2E=20 for typing letters and memos and emails and stuff. I hated it for typing=20 code. Then, I had a major computer crash and lost all my work and had to=20 buy refox and decided to give up on Dvorak for now. It is a good layout f= or=20 typing English, but not necessarily for typing code.
