    I tried Dvorak. Problem is I didn’t see that much improvement and my QWERTY skills took a hit. I can already type plenty fast and my ergonomic keyboard addresses ergonomic issues, so it just wasn’t worth it.

      To me, it’s not about speed, but about comfort. My hands don’t move much with Dvorak, while QWERTY has me doing weird hand movements that are unnatural.

        I use a Kinesis keyboard for almost all of my typing. Finger travel is fairly minimal anyway with the well design and linear keyboard layout regardless of layout.
