I would say they're certainly on the same level ! I've lost count of the number to times I've seen 'dose' used instead of 'does' in questions and answers on here ! That also goes for the correct use of 'there' and 'their', 'where' 'were' and 'wear' etc !

From an educationalist perspective illiteracy is far more of an issue than computer illiteracy. This is because if you have a very low literacy level learning will be impacted especially where reading and producing written work is concerned. In most cases using a computer to mask illiteracy issues soon shows up as previously pointed out in the initial answer. Incorrect use of the words that sound the same is frequent as is the use of text speak rather than the correct form of the word. This is being observed by teachers and examiners across the world at present. Literacy is a vital tool to normal daily functions. For those when do not need, have or use a computer there is still a need to be to read and write and whilst the spell check is very over used tool it cannot identify if you've placed "dose" instead of "does" in a sentence.
