I was wondering how you'd get that kind of typo out of a keyboard.
I had my left hand positioned correctly, but misplaced my right hand (which is why all the vowels were right, but the consonants mostly weren't.)
Hm. I think it would be better to ask your colleagues, assuming that they're also using the German keyboard layout. I switched to Dvorak in my third year of college, pretty much on a whim (because my typing speed was too slow, and I was tempted by the way that it is purportedly less stressful on the fingers and wrists). I'm not sure what the differences would be with a German layout -- is there no easy way to type in ä ö ü ß easily with the Dvorak keyboard layout?
Oddly enough, I find it easier to use Dvorak on a flat keyboard such as with my laptop. When I'm on a raised keyboard, such as with the PC in my room, I find QWERTY comes more naturally. (It's partially because the keys require more effort to push, and I can't seem to get into the rhythm. Plus I'm used to using QWERTY on raised keyboards; most of my experience with using Dvorak has been on a flat one)
