> There is another fundamental that is ignored by a lot of computer users. I think everyone who spends a lot of time behind a computer should learn how to touch type, since typing is still the main way of interacting with your computer.

I sort of agree, but anyone typing out code at 120WPM isn't programming, they're writing. Programming is an intellectual activity, not a physical one so learning to touch type is worthwhile but might only gain you a few minutes a day of productivity over someone doing 40WPM in a home-grown hunt-and-peck style of typing?
