Mostly switched to Dvorak...
Earlier this week I thought I'd try a Dvorak keyboard. It's been fairly successful so far: I used it all day yesterday. I'm still clearly slower than I was, but my error rate and accuracy are improving and I see some more words are becoming "automatic". Passwords are especially tough because they're often known by muscle memory and not echoed to the screen, but I now generally get them right.
There is one very odd effect: I find myself trying to "speak in Dvorak": not mangling the words but just unnecessarily pausing to think about how they're spelled.
