Yes & No
"4: Browser basics
It is almost painful to watch some ???computer savvy??? people operate a Web browser. The most obvious goof is going to a search engine to type in the address of the site they want to go to."
I disagree with this.
I always use the Search box to go to sites that I don't have bookmarked.
It eliminates problems caused by typos.
Where does gooogle.com take you? A malware site?
What about foreign languages?
I can't type kanji, katakana, Russian, etc.
If you use search, an additional bonus is that you are offered a translated page link.
"6: Common keyboard commands
If you do not know how to copy/paste without a mouse, you are not computer literate."
Agreed.
I always cringe when I watch my friend use the scratchpad to force the cursor up to the "Edit" menu and then select "Paste".
He also does this when he wants to use the "Start Menu".

Agreed.
The number of people who just dump stuff at random on their PCs and then complain that they can't find anything is unbelievable.
