I've been typing for a long time, but I don't type that fast when I don't really need to. I normally go really slow.   -- Posted by ajm51987 at 4:08 pm on Aug. 30, 2003 80-90?!

Ash -- Posted by vitamin at 9:54 am on Aug. 31, 2003 umm around 70-80 but sometimes i do have trouble....it depends on how much red bull i have had -- Posted by Kii at 10:40 pm on Sep. 1, 2003 On average, 75-85 WPM.  It's peaked at 120 WPM. -- Posted by squirellplayingtag at 12:35 pm on Sep. 2, 2003 55-65, 40 on a bad day, on a good day i can get 90's -- Posted by XF1 at 8:51 pm on Sep. 2, 2003 Quote: from ajm51987 at 4:08 pm on Aug. 30, 2003 80-90?! Are you fucking serious?! Yes sir.  :) -- Posted by Starji at 10:25 am on Sep. 3, 2003 Sad part is this is all nothing.  A friend of mine types at 90-110 wpm consistantly which is about the limit of the qwerty keyboard.  If you get on the dvorak or maybe a natural evolution keyboard you can type upwards of 160-200 wpm I believe. -- Posted by speedy66 at 8:14 pm on Sep. 4, 2003 My mom seems to type twice as fast as me so   -- Posted by XF1 at 11:05 am on Sep. 6, 2003 Quote: from Starji at 10:25 am on Sep. 3, 2003 Sad part is this is all nothing.  A friend of mine types at 90-110 wpm consistantly which is about the limit of the qwerty keyboard.  If you get on the dvorak or maybe a natural evolution keyboard you can type upwards of 160-200 wpm I believe. Hmmm... -- Posted by Froehler at 1:52 am on Sep. 7, 2003 I can't type worth shit. 25-35wpm maybe. I've never taken any classes, I've only had practice online, chatting and stuff. -- Posted by antimac at 7:06 pm on Sep. 7, 2003 I dont really have that great form for typing coherent languages.  my typing style usually revolves aroun the kind that one uses to code php.  anywho, i am more of a graphical person.  i havent typed much except for the tons of essays i do, but other than that, its eoither coding, or PSing or 3dsmax-ing, etc i do definately lean towards the artistic side.  thats why i rely on windows and INtel to provide me w/ the necessary power to do cool stuff.  macs just let me down.  i tried to allocate more ram to PS on a mac, but, it still crtapped up.  heh, the OS is such a resource drain -- Posted by Coolie at 4:25 am on Oct. 1, 2003 I type 60-70, and it depends on the difficulty of text. I used the first typing tutor I found in Yahoo - Yesolo or something like that, don't rememer, the rest is practice. -- Posted by gotdilbert at 11:35 pm on Oct. 19, 2003 Lukily I can type around 120 wpm when I know what I'm going to type, when I don't really know what I'm typing, I can only get 70-80.  I can get around 160 with the DVORAK keyboard layout.  Check it out (dvorak on google). -- Posted by riddleoflife at 8:08 am on Oct. 24, 2003 well about 30 wrds per minute with out trying and if its free typing then i can type 60 wrds per minute and average i can get 40 words per minute with out even trying. -- Posted by Cerberus at 5:52 pm on Oct. 28, 2003 I can type about 90 words a minute, my accuracy isn't great though it is about 90% at that speed.  Not to mention i use an ergonomical keyboard and am so use to it now that whenever i switch to standard my TWPM drops.  Oh well. -- Posted by OzX at 12:34 am on Oct. 30, 2003 Quote: from Kii at 11:40 pm on Sep. 1, 2003 On average, 75-85 WPM.  It's peaked at 120 WPM. i have 85 avg, peak is 112 -- Posted by OzX at 12:35 am on Oct. 30, 2003 Quote: from Starji at 11:25 am on Sep. 3, 2003 Sad part is this is all nothing.  A friend of mine types at 90-110 wpm consistantly which is about the limit of the qwerty keyboard.  If you get on the dvorak or maybe a natural evolution keyboard you can type upwards of 160-200 wpm I believe. elaborate -- Posted by Cerberus at 1:32 am on Nov. 1, 2003 It is the computer key design.  QWERT (The top line of letters on your left hand side) was designed specifically to keep typewriter keys from jamming when people typed to fast.  As you can see, a lot of the letters that we use the most aren't in the most convieniant place. DVORAK is a different setting of the keys, that is made specifically for computer keyboards.  But, learning one style and then trying to learn another gets rather hard.  QWERT is still your standard key style. I'm not sure about the natural evolution keyboard myself.  It might be an ergonomical keyboard.  Because of the way the keys are layed out (same QWERT style, but are layed out curved in order to lessen the stress on your wrists.) that might be what the reference is for. -- Posted by Kii at 1:08 am on Nov. 16, 2003 Quote: from Cerberus at 1:32 am on Nov. 1, 2003 It is the computer key design.  QWERT (The top line of letters on your left hand side) was designed specifically to keep typewriter keys from jamming when people typed to fast.  As you can see, a lot of the letters that we use the most aren't in the most convieniant place.

I've always been tempted to switch to DVORAK, but I'm way too lazy to learn a whole new system of typing.  :D -- Posted by trakal at 1:31 am on Nov. 16, 2003 On gtypist (ncurese program) I'm getting around 40-50 words per minute. Though it's mostly typing exactly what they give me. So it's kind of hard to say what my real typing speed is as far as actually typing things as in example of what I have just typed. -- Posted by Cerberus at 5:47 pm on Nov. 20, 2003 Quote: from Kii at 1:08 am on Nov. 16, 2003 Quote: from Cerberus at 1:32 am on Nov. 1, 2003 It is the computer key design.  QWERT (The top line of letters on your left hand side) was designed specifically to keep typewriter keys from jamming when people typed to fast.  As you can see, a lot of the letters that we use the most aren't in the most convieniant place.
