Been meaning to try dvorak again one day, it's just that all laptops come shipped with a standard keyboard so I prefer to use a keyboard
All operating systems support the US English Dvorak layout for absolute years. What I personally tested: OS/2, OSX, Windows (all of them), Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris and Haiku.
They all support software switching the keyboard layout, and Dvorak comes standard. So you don't need to swap keycaps etc. If you touch type, which hopefully you do with QWERTY and definitely with Dvorak, then there really is no need to look at the keys or swap keycaps. Hell, my Ergodox keyboard doesn't even have anything printed on any of my keycaps - they are pure black.
The Programmer Dvorak will be a manually installed layout for Windows (I don't know about OSX), but that is only a few KBytes install. I believe Linux and FreeBSD now includes Programmer Dvorak as standard for a few years now too.
Dvorak and Programmer Dvorak are pretty similar anyway, it's just the number row that has really changed.
