   Got to be a myth CB  IMHO those Old mechanical typewriter would only allow so much speed ..no matter how the keys were layed out.

I took typing in High School and used it in College (way before PC Keyboards were around)..and when they did arrive.. I thought "Oh this should be easy.."   Then found that I laboriously hunted and pecked around..in fear of "blowing up" my PC.  Later on all this went away.. I could type around 40-45 wpm,  but on a KB I am much faster..well.. mistakes are always present..and we all know that is common for most people.

Texting is the new rage... I suppose I should make an effort to become more skilled in all the new "abbrevs"..n acronyms

I too took typing in high school.  Most of the guys I knew thought I was crazy, and asked me if I had plans to become someones secretary.

I don't recall how fast I typed in high school during our tests,  but the last time I was officially tested I went to apply for a customer service position for a software company and they had us take typing tests where you have to listen to a pre recorded conversation and take down the informaiton, then at the end you had to type from a page into the computer.

At that time I was clocked at 96 words per minute with an error ratio of .6  Without even going through the actual interview process they wanted to hire me.  But at the time I was going back to college and their hours didn't work out with my hours so I had to pass.

Ahhhh, good times, good times indeed.

   Whoooeeee.. 96wpm..hope you had a Fire extinguisher nearby..  hehe

I never got close to those numbers..kind of a methodical typer.   I can go faster on a KB if I have to..don't have a clue how it might stack up in wpm's..  I know I could type autoexe. bat in a flash ...blindfolded back in the Dark DOS days of yesteryear...   

   Oh yes..those good IL College.  Days... My My... so many years ago and still fresh in many a alumni mind.
