WHO'S THIS FOR? For all computer users, especially beginners - but it helps existing users change their bad habits too, and boost their efficiency significantly!

WHAT'S THE POINT? Companies and individuals may spend plenty money on hardware, software and technical training - but they frequently ignore the fundamental core skill of touch typing, the most efficient way of getting information into a computer! Lack of good keyboarding skills undermines all other investments in technology, and is barrier to real productivity.
