Wow, that's faster than Barbara Blackburn who holds the Guinness world record. You should compete :)


If you're suggesting I am lying, I assure you there are more substantial things to lie about.

> Typing, Fastest. Mrs. Barbara Blackburn of Salem, Oregon maintained a speed of 150 wpm for 50 min (37,500 key strokes) and attained a speed of 170 wpm using the Dvorak Simplified Keyboard (DSK) system. Her top speed was recorded at 212 wpm.

I (could) absolutely type at 150 wpm. I would not be able to sustain it for 50 minutes. Nor could I type at 170 wpm, let alone 212 wpm.


I think MortenK was just poking a little fun. :) all around
