I'm a 2 finger typist and not very good. I have to look at the keyboard and even then I frequently hit the wrong key. I never did any in my life until I had the computer ...but it's no excuse really, I've had it 5 years now and still typing with 2 fingers!
What kind of a typist are you?

It was part of my job for many years - slowing down a bit now but still quite fast.

Same as you Carol. Two fingers and eyes on the board.

Only when I look at the screen do I go back and correct everything!

I taught myself as a student and I am probably the fastest typist in the West but not all that accurate. Friend who had never typed in his life decided to do a touch-typing course at evening class, prior to getting a computer. I was surprised how well and quickly he got on, accurate too -- but not as fast as wot I am.

adequate.....when I was working and had to input numerical data my fingers could really fly, but as to everyday typing I am adequate.

In business I always had a secretary near to hand that use to take pity on me and would come out with the phrase "should I do that for you "
But now since having a computer I'm to two finger typist and still not very good.

Only one finger for me, but my work colleagues tell me it's the fastest finger they've ever seen

I'm about the same as Katkins, mine was mostly numerical work, but I am quite fast I suppose, and I don't bash hell out the keyboard like men do.

I was a trained copy and audio typist and used to get good speeds. When I first came out of hospital I seemed to have lost my skills and I was hitting all the wrong keys and hardly used the PC for a while. Gradually it came back again, and although I guess I am not as fast or accurate as I was, I am doing pretty well.
