My father swears by Dvorak, he's been using it for 25 to 30 years. He used to constantly try to get me to use it but my fingers were hard wired for QWERTY. I can see the advantage, the keys you use the most are under your fingers in the "home" row. If QWERTY wasn't designed to keep keys from "tangling" then I'm not quite sure why it was designed the way it was.
