Or, as it was once put in an exchange between a programmer and a logic designer at one company: "The problem with engineers is that they can't write." "Well, the problem with programmers is that they can't read schematics." In any case, I can't remember an engineer who could type (and had opinions about keyboard layouts) who wasn't also at least a fair programmer. You have to have gotten beyond hunt-and-peck to care.
