cal 6 Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 I just notice that I hardly ever look at the keyboard when I type. I had never noticed that before. Still only use 2 fingers most of the time, though pretty fast. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 I dictate everything to my super sexy secretary Kaoru. She never complains when I say, "Let's stop this boring translation for a mo, and post something whimsical on Snow Japan." Everything's "OK!" with sexy Kaoru. Link to post Share on other sites
woywoy 0 Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 I must use 8 out of my 10 fingers. I think the pinky finger is a bit of a lazy prikc so that accounts for the 2 out of 10 fingers that aren't working. Ocean, Kaoru sounds great! When can you send her over to my place???

kintaro 0 Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 8 fingers when using English. I don't have to look..I don't think we were allowed to graduate from highschool without being able to type a certain number of words per minute with 80% accuracy. Link to post Share on other sites

Blimey. The first thing I typed was my undergraduate dissertation, and tha was on a ratty old portable. You really had to bang those keys. I used a word processor for my PhD thesis. The computer age! It was a BBC computer, and could hold a whopping 5 pages of text in memory. The printer buffer could hold about 3 files, so printing it took a whole night loading 50 files in, one at a time. I use eight fingers, and thumbs on the spacebar. Link to post Share on other sites
kintaro 0 Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 In highschool we weren't allowed to hand write. My first computer was an Apple Notebook. I still have the little antique but have used Dell ever since. Oh, I also used to use a korean computer that was a laptop that normally lived in a docking station but could become portable. Didn't work very well but I kept that antique as well. The company died. That picture is a little disturbing. Link to post Share on other sites
