I think Dvorak is more interesting for being less stressful on the hands
than for being faster. I've typed on qwerty for 17 years, around 120-130
wpm; it'd take years for me to catch up to speed if I changed layout,
and I type fast enough already--but perhaps Dvorak could help keep me out
of the terminal carpel tunnel ward a little longer ...
