  • Bobd314, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1~80 or so. I I mess up on something and I guess I hit space to much and everything turns red from then on cause im not paying attention to the thing at the bottom. I just think im on a different work when it thinks im on another one.

  • modernhumorist, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0dclowd, not true.

    typing over 100wpm is not unheard of. In fact, they even have typing contests at my high school.... I type over 100 consistantly.
  • Zippo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+055WPM... but I use my two index finers.
  • w3bsmith, on 10/12/2007, -0/+034 wpm. Man I suck.

  • clumsyninja, on 10/12/2007, -0/+025wpm. I can't touch type do to an old injury. I can only use four fingers, so that's pretty good for me.
  • gotdilbert, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0161 100% accuracy.
  • pfister_, on 10/12/2007, -0/+092 WPM gross, 89 adjusted. I wish I had taken a test back before I switched to Dvorak, so I could compare.
  • cecil_t, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Gross speed 72 WPM
    Net speed 68 WPM

    that's on my laptop, I'm sure I can do better on a good keyboard.
  • brouhaha48, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0257 "a"s per minute
  • Lainy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+053 98%accuracy

    Thinks I need to practice my typing.
  • gklitt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+087 wpm.
  • dclowd9901, on 10/12/2007, -0/+045-60 is average, 80 or so is great and 90 is phenomenal, anything beyond that is impossible with a traditional qwerty keyboard. You would need a annotation machine to get speeds like that. If you don't need an annotation machine, I recommend you look into a career as a court reporter, or stop lying.
  • SirBriggs, on 10/12/2007, -0/+057, but 95% accuracy.

  • iamtheshow, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0gross 67 wpm, 97% accuracy on the 3-minute test on wizard of oz.
