did you ever use a typewriter?

I still have my old typewriter. I remember we had to get one in the 4th grade because we had to type a paper for my history class, and they didn't allow us to stay over at school back then so my mom had to rush out and pay like $200 for it. That sucked.

oh yeah. we had typewriters in college and i even underwent typing lessons. which came in handy when the world shifted to computers. i remember the first time i handled the computer. i was a staff at our school paper. when the editor gave me back my edited manuscript, i started keying in the article in wordstar. it was good that he found out what i was doing, because he stopped me when i was still in the second sentence. he told me that the computer makes editing easy. i didn't have to retype my article. yippee!!!! it was a funny experience. hahaha

Well i did go for typing classes that is typewriter typing classes a couple of years ago and that was really the last time i used it...i really love comps...i mean considering the no of mistakes i do while typing i am glad there is a delete key in this...

I used to. I used it to make my projects when I was in grade school.

Yeah, we have typewriters at home and in the office. My home bought the typewriter very early, because my dad thought it was very useful for me in the future. Although at that time I was only a child. Now we have computer and printer, and therefore the typewrite is almost not used any more.

I remember I use typewriter until I was like 18 probably... that was when I started using computer to do my homeworks!

ya i also used it for several years before i got myself well accustomed with computers. now a days , i am doing any work in that and the one i own is lying idle in home

when I was a teenager I used a typewriter. It had keys that I had to push down quite hard. Yes, making a mistake was not much fun using all that white correction fluid! I passed a core text processing test when I was 16 years old. A year later I got the opportunity to try using a computer. Being used to a typewriter I put my fingers down quite hard on the home keys. Oh my! All those keys went down at once. The poor computer was terribly confused. Yes, I am grateful for computers. Word processing is so much easier when I can delete any mistakes on screen, save and then print.

Now I hate typewriters as you said computers are here.

yes years ago manuel by hand and electric i'm so glad for computers as well if i make a mistake i just delete it out and there is spell check. i still have the old typewriters in the attic maybe someone can take them

I use to have a typewriter to play with when I was little. It was my mom's before we got a word processor and I use to love pretending to write letters to people. My friends always wanted to play with it when they came over. It had a erase button that would erase the last letter you typed if you made a mistake. Wow, those were the good old days.
