13 WPM

I'm up to 13 words per minute with the Dvorak keyboard. I do 80 or so on QWERTY but I've been using that a hella longer. This is a lot more work than I expected. 

I also learned that my desktop keyboard boots into qwerty which caused me a little panic because my drive is encrypted and needs a password to boot in addition to logging in. Both assume a qwerty layout. I am hoping to discover a bios setting for keyboard layout otherwise I need to rethink those passwords because they're some of the few that I still type regularly.
