Then comes the pain of having to switch keyboards at work. Also, what laptops even offer a DVORAK keyboard over the QWERTY? Not many. I agree with DVORAK's principles, though.

I actually had a dvorak keyboard a couple years ago, didn't work out. If you're already used to qwerty and a pretty decent typist, it's not worth the change. If you're just starting to use a computer, that'd be the best time to make that decision. It was a pain for the first week trying to type even my name.
