I've been on and off with Dvorak since about 16 years. The feeling is consistent, when I do a lot of typing during the day with QWERTY my hands ache, with Dvorak they don't. So as you say, as long as the typing speed is ok, there's a huge win in how comfortable it is. For me the best way of separating between the two is how the motions are as well, with QWERTY everything is clustered and with Dvorak each key is on each hand, so much more of a hand dance, which in itself is quite nice. I do remember the first time I introduced myself to it though. Removed all the caps on the keyboard and placed them accordingly, found myself unable to find the correct letters even though I searched the keyboard. Turns out every letter was under the hand that still rested on the keyboard ;) Took ages just to write common sentences, while the brain went crazy. Worth it now though! The software support is better nowadays, used to be horrible with VNC and the likes. With NoVNC catching wind all those problems are gone though, even on things like IPMI with HTML5 consoles! RDP still blows my mind by changing the keyboard layout to whatever is running on the target machine.
