I now type 45 or 55 depending on how fast I try to go. Seems the slower I go the better my error free speed is. <br /><br />I bet you have a new keyboard by now. What brand did you get? I like Logitech for their feel and additional features. <br /><br />Love,<br />LeeLeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09527606943179561117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8412565310065277929.post-79435355024012360512013-04-18T17:39:54.348-04:002013-04-18T17:39:54.348-04:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8412565310065277929.post-6677629673657478522013-04-18T00:29:37.299-04:002013-04-18T00:29:37.299-04:00I remember taking typing lessons too.

It irks the heck out of Bobby G. when I type and look at him, involved in a conversation, at the same time. While I haven't actually lost any keys, some of my keys on the desk top have no letters on them. Sandi, your post are always so humorous and fun to read. I just love them. Bobby G. had his 4th infusion last Tuesday and is so so much better now. Hope Mac and you are doing well. xoxo P.S. I was and still am a terrible typist! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8412565310065277929.post-27447976924088900312013-04-17T14:03:03.347-04:002013-04-17T14:03:03.347-04:00Aww, so glad you haven't lost the touch.

Unfortunately, even though at one time (and yes I took a typing class in HS, my teacher was Mrs Anderson, funny how I can remember her name after 52 years) I could type really fast. The problem I'm finding with this computer keyboard is that it doesn't seem to be the same. Or, perhaps it's because I tend to type at night with the lights out. Oh yeah, that's it. :)<br /><br />xoxoSallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02865722713732049339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8412565310065277929.post-13516045755610962732013-04-17T13:50:43.084-04:002013-04-17T13:50:43.084-04:00Impressive, I never managed to hammer away a whole...Impressive, I never managed to hammer away a whole letter, even though I touch-type, and very fast at that (I made second place in a State-wide competition when I was 16 or so). <br /><br />I lost a few letter, the cause of which still makes my children laugh themselves silly: I had spilled my tea over the keyboard and thought it was a clever idea to suck the liquid up with the vacuum cleaner.

I was a whiz in the speed department -timed tests and I would be up there as high as 95-100 wpm. WOW. And then they would deduct for the errors and my speed would drop down considerably to about 60-65 wpm. Respectable speed yes, but accuracy is really very important too. (I was the typing teacher;s nemesis, in case your wondering but she and I are good friends now.) Once I started using computers though -and of course, keyboards -my typing improved to 75-78 cwpm. (Probably because on a keyboard you can also backspace and also, it helped that I worked for several years doing keypunch on the old type machines and had very good speed there. At least, when you clean your keyboard (or Mac does) you didn't do what a guy I worked with about 20 years back did. Something had apparently been spilled or it was extra dusty but his keyboard needed cleaning and he asked our supervisor how to go about doing that. Our supervisor -a wise cracker much of the time -told him to just take it and wash it down never thinking the other guy would do what he did. He took it to the breakroom/kitchen and put it in the sinks and scrubbed it then in the sink full of water! No, it didn't help it to operate better even though it was now "Clean"!Jenihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16425701332785470116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8412565310065277929.post-41537524380019440692013-04-17T11:55:54.184-04:002013-04-17T11:55:54.184-04:00Oh no.

I hear that they're really inexpensive. ;D<br /><br />Eighty-five correct words a minute?

We we got our first computer (1989), we also picked up a Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing disc and I learned the basics in just a few hours. Speed and comfort picked up from there. I have never worn out a key though. :)Hilaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12787493532006658679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8412565310065277929.post-36898752546712189422013-04-17T09:36:59.353-04:002013-04-17T09:36:59.353-04:00Why does this happen?

I only use 2 fingers on each hand and have to look at the keys or I go horribly wrong, so I'd be useless on your keyboard with invisible lettering. My mind can't quite get round as to how the letters could wear off!<br />It is a pity that it was an *A* that fell off completely. An *E* would have been worse but maybe a *Q* would have been less trouble.<br />Maybe you need a new keyboard?<br /><br />Thanks for your prayers. Much appreciated.<br />Maggie x<br /><br /><a href="http://granniemay.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Nuts in May</a>Maggie Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06183886005936250976noreply@blogger.com
