I don't. Yet

I just read up on the Dvorak layout on Wikipedia, and honestly don't see the point of trying to fool with it, but that's just my opinion. I can type like a mad fiend using the old QWERTY layout, and don't have the patience to learn another system, lol.

There are days where I type so much that by the end of the day my fingers hurt. I know that I have (or am getting, same difference) arthritis. I am not going down without a fight.

I am hoping that learning a more ergonomic layout, and getting good enough at it to type my normal QWERTY speed, will reduce the discomfort of those days. If that much practice raises my typing speed in the bargain, well, that's good, too. Wish me luck in this battle.

Indeed I do wish you luck! Keep us posted. If you find it to be worth the effort, I may give it some thought in the future.
