Won't venture to disagree with others' results, but turning off syntax highlighting would be detrimental to me. Due to my dyslexia, I rely on it heavily to help me visually parse code, and catch typos early.

I'm not dyslexic, but I also find that syntax highlighting helps me catch typos early. The more distinctly colored different segments of text are, the better, in my opinion.
