This Sega game for the PC was what did it for me. Originally it was an arcade game called something like 'House Of The Dead' with plastic guns where to shot the zombies.
In the PC touch-typing version you have to type strings before they get you. It's a great learning aid for those who get bored with normal tutorial software. Window$ only though:-(
Having said that it only teaches you the conventional QWERTY keyboard layout. I have heard that the dvorak layout is better for coders as the puctuation characters are more sensibly placed for a coder.
