I used to be around 80 wpm with qwerty, now I'm 65 on dvorak, but it's much more comfortable.
It's hard to explain, but it feels satisfying to type. When I think about a word I'll sometimes think about what motions it takes to type it (on dvorak) and it just feels comfortable in my head. No regrets about the loss in typing speed.
The worst part about using dvorak is that no software is (or ever will be) designed for dvorak. Vim and emacs still work great, most shortcuts are phonetic and jk are where cv are, so I don't really mind.
I have been waiting for someone to sit down and redesign the keyboard layout for programming, and maybe this is it.
I've been typing on Programmer Dvorak[0] for 3 over years.
