I leaned to type on an old manual Underwood! It had an apron over the keys so you couldn't peek! My little fingers have never been very strong and I always had trouble using QAZ or PL, and the various punctuation marks. I was never very good at touch typing numbers either, don't know why! I have had a new pc installed today - with Vista Ultimate and new wireless keyboard. It's supa-doopa and no effort needed with the keys. I pity those poor typists, like my own mother, who had to use those dreadful heavy old manual typewriters. Remember the typing pool at all (not that I ever worked in one). I also remember with more affection Gestetna machines and that wonderful correction fluid! Oh dear!!!! |

Oh that's taken me way back...correction fluid!! And then IBM came out with the correcting tape .... remember, you just backspaced over the error and it vanished!!! What a miracle that was!  My job was mostly with figures, didn't require much typing, so my hunt-and-peck sufficed; had an old manual Smith-Corona....and you did have to pound those keys... Your new PC sounds cool ...... |
