200 words a minute seems insanely fast to me.  I haven't even checked my speed since they made us do it in school and I honestly can't remember how fast I typed back then.
Wow, I wish I could type that fast, I type kinda slow.

I'm employing the advanced search and destroy method. It would seem my life as a machinist didn't prepare me for typing.

I'd like to see someone type 200 GWAM, things like this are fascinating to me- kinda like watching Gordan Ramsey cook; there's just something so mesmerizing about it.

When I was young and dumb, I used to type 120 wpm. Last time I took a typing test, I was only 70 wpm because of my eyesight. I don't look at the keys, I look at the screen and some letters don't look right. An "rn' looks like an 'm' and letters like that. A small 'i' looks like a capital I so it's hard for me at times. I can't remember the other letters that I have a problem with. I need to get new glasses but at over $500 (because of my eye problems) for the lenses, I can't afford it.

About 100 wpm with nearly perfect accuracy. I work as a secretary so I have to get tested every now and then. Apparently, very few people can type over 50-60, which seems crazy to me!

We did a lot of Mavis Beacon when I was in school. I can't remember how many words but I can type pretty fast. I'll have to do a typing test and find out.

They never taught us to type in school... so I have no idea how fast or slow I might be... to be honest I never even thought about the idea of timing myself while typing... interesting though :)))

When I test, it's usually about 50 wpm counting my mistakes and all.  :-[

But it's been a long while since I was tested.
