Today, I got back to the grind and started in on some programming... only to find it difficult to get into the flow on the Dvorak keyboard. It's only fair to say that I'm not yet proficient with the new keyboard, but I feel I've made excellent progress, that is to say that I can almost type a constant stream of words (not terribly quickly yet but constant) when I close my eyes to type. I also feel that I've reached the point of no return. I'm at that place where I can no longer remember the Qwerty keyboard, so trying to go back would be at least as difficult as moving forward.
