We've been using Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing software (the adult version, not the kids version), and my 10yo just told me yesterday that she typed 120 wpm with no mistakes on her most recent timed test. It was one of those moments when you calmly say, "That's great, honey!" and then walk around with a silly grin on your face the rest of the day :-)
