How about a program that tracks your spell checker - lists and counts the words you misspell. With a little ingenuity it might be able to create a little game where your misspelled words are spoken and you get points for typing the right answers at top speed?

I understand the enthusiasm but I really don't want to play games with my computer. I just want the thing to do its job and get the hell out of the way when I'm done.

This might be great for children. The trick is how to make the game fun.
