Yes, vi killed my dvorak attempt too. I stuck it out for 6 weeks, making progress all the while--I could actually feel my wrists and fingers were strained less with Dvorak. I thought, this is great! It's totally worth it! But I soon realized as a sysadmin that as great as it was for typing emails and stuff, I knew the vi keystrokes in qwerty in my muscles and it was simply too hard to switch.
Oh yeah, and "ls -la" is a real bitch to type in dvorak (pinky pinky thumb pinky pinky pinky).
