    I ain't gonna say shit about Dvorak, I just know that I like being able to type on other people's computers.

This is THE major drawback. Personally, I think we should start teaching DVORAK in school and move away from QWERTY. Easier on the wrists, faster, less prone to errors. It takes about 2-3 weeks to un-train your fingers, then another two-three weeks to git gud and start typing faster than you did before. then you go to a QWERTY machine and fail all over yourself.
