Does anyone use dvorak keyboard for coding?

I have tried to use dvorak keyboard layout with much success, even speeding my typing up considerably verses qwerty layout with practice of course, if you use a specific one or have found others to be of use when coding please let me know, i am interested in what others may find useful.

Ever Drakonis I have tried it once, but it was not for me. It takes dedication to get use to it. Furthermore it gets confusing when moving between devices. The advantages are not just speed but also help to prevent carpal tunnel syndrone due to less strain.

Why bother? Choose a keyboard that fits you best and makes you the most productive, the one you know the best (fingering), which you may use without watching your fingers...

jiri bocan, the reason i pose the question is to see what others utilize, the speed and fingering of dvorak intrigues me and had i not posted the query i would still not have it as my layout; since the posting i have been using just dvorak its not that difficult for me to use on the phone. my pc however doesnt have the keys laid out properly. i am learning to type in dvorak not a pro; but i have to start somewhere. no one starts out anything a pro; it takes doing to get there =]
