Dvorak has actually been shown to really be no better than QWERTY - http://reason.com/archives/1996/06/01/typing-errors/3

You're right about that, but Dvorak is much easier on the hands. The average distance travelled by your fingers is greatly reduced. (It looks like Colemak beats both, though: http://colemak.com/Compare.)

I type Colemak 99% of the time, but the 1% I don't, it can be a really frustrating experience. It amazes me that 20 years of typing ability was forgotten almost entirely in a month.
