   Nahhhh.  Yeah, the //c is easy.  As for the //e I know it can be done with a
jumper pad, but it's been a hundred years since I worked on a //e.  There are 6
pads near the keyboard connector labeled X1 thru X6.  I wanna say that one of
them pad or pads can be jumpered and or cut to make the keyboard DVORAK.  Or
maybe it was just jumpering the J19 connector near the keyboard connector. 
Also, on the //c and IIgs, the keycaps are flat and all the same, so you can
switch around the keycaps to the DVORAK layout for the most part.  

   On the //e, can someone try it real quick on the J19 connector?  My //e's
are stashed away for the moment.
