I tested that by turning off Apple's autocorrect on my Mac. It turns out I'm a less accurate typist than I thought. Now, I'm happy to let autocorrect put right all "teh" mistakes I make. It's annoying when I want to type something unusual, but that happens less often than I make mistakes, so the balance is in autocorrect's favour.

My goodness, I turned that off under a minute after I discovered that the "feature" existed. Autocorrect is for onscreen keyboards. I am a far more accurate typist than my computer gives me credit for.
