Yeah.  I accidentally left the admin account on the PC in the conference room set to Dvorak.  Nobody else could log-in.  Finally, they gave up and booted it from a Windows CD, in safe mode... and it still came up in Dvorak on the login screen. It took my co-workers an hour to log in and change the keymap back :) .

To be fair, according to their spiel, it's not just a blank keyboard:

QuoteMost keyboards use a standard 55 grams of force required to register every key, Das Keyboard has 5 different levels of force. The keys are divided into groups and their feedback springs are weighted differently; from 35 grams to 80 grams, which correspond to the strength of the finger that touches the keys. The result is more comfort for your hands.

It's about double the price of a standard keyboard.  I'm still tempted to get one.
