Instead, with minimal error, I look at the screen only, and type with two fingers, with over 90 RPM. Yes, I memorized where every key is located at.

Am I doing it wrong?

Uh...I think you maybe meant WPM? (Words per minute). RPM is revolutions per minute.

That said, if you really are typing 90 WPM like that, no, you're not doing it wrong. My best friend types that way, and he's an investment advisor who juggles a three-monitor setup.

Home row is overrated anyway, but you could probably increase your WPM by quite a bit if you trained yourself to use more than two fingers

I know it sounds kind of odd for me to say this about myself, but you should know that my mood changes with the wind.

Home Row cuts error down, but if you're quick enough, it shouldn't matter much unless maybe you're a stenographer? >__>

Stenographers use specialized keyboards, though.

My typing style was clearly influenced by me playing FPS games as a child. This is something I didn't realize until only last year, but I use all my fingers on my left hand (which is used for WASD, space, shift, ctrl, and basically everything else in FPS) while on my right hand I only use my index finger to type (much like clicking a mouse with your index finger) with the exception of using my ring finger to hit backspace, enter and shift.
