If you have doubts, don't switch. It saves you a lot of trouble when you have to work on someone else's system. Dvorak has the advantage of being supported on most operating systems, now, and possibly some decades into the future. Note also that if you grew comfortable with asdf, hjkl, or Emacs key bindings (C-n, C-p, C-f, C-b), you'd have to unlearn some muscle memory there as well. Source: am very happy Dvorak typist for more than 20 years. The initial two weeks, starting from the Beavis-and-Butthead lessons, gave me terrible headaches.
