I haven't tested it for years but I used to have a 100-120 wpm speed in typing and even faster with Pitman's shorthand, the latter of which is a hard won but now redundant skill I still use occasionally to scribble notes to myself which I later have trouble deciephering.
As someone old enough to have learned to type on a manual typewriter around the middle of last century and who then graduated to electric typewriters, then to memory typewriters and finally to computers, I find modern flat keyboards slow me down and as for touch screens .....
The keyboard for my desktop sometimes allows me to type so fast the computer can't keep up with me and I have to stop to let it catch up!
What's your WPM?
