   For those who are interested, you can find software drivers for Dvorak 
layout in the usual places (FTP-Gopher sites, BBS, shareware disks, etc.).
Most of the ones I've seen were free.

   On the Mac, these are called keyboard layouts (only a few K) and you just 
chuck them in the System file.  For example, there's the free "ANSI Dvorak".
