i am the type of a person who doesn't want to have long nails. really, i trim down every once in a while because its so hard for me to maintain long nails. i cut my nails short and keep it clean. no special manicure/ pedicure thing. i am not so womanly at that! he he he. so my answer would be NO. i cannot type with long nails. that would be very uncomfortable for me to do .

They had grown longer and lust this morning I trimmed them. I find it too inconvenient to type with longer nails. I do not how some women manage it. May be they are used to it.

I can't remember the last time i had long nails. From the moment i got employed and had to do a lot of typing i keep my nails short. I could not work well with long fingernails i'm not comfortable with it. Hi oyenkai!

I am working as a medical transcriptionist and my job requires lots of typing. It is not possible for me to type with long nails. It makes me very irritating if I have longer nails. So I always keeps my nails short as far as possible.

I have not done this even before considering that I have very short nails ever since. My job before entails that I should have short nails since I wore gloves during rescue. Usually it is not advisable to have long nails. I have been accustomed to sporting short nails til now. I think it would be a little bit difficult to type with long nails. Though I am good at typing since I have typing classes before during my college days taking up commerce. I can even type without looking at the keyboards. But obviously it would be difficult to type with long nails.

It is very difficult to type with long nails. I like to keep my nails long and decorate with nail polish, but it takes a lot of time and I don't have time to spend for it. So, I always keep my nails short inorder to keep it clean from dirt. I can type with a speed of around 50 words per minute now, I am wondering at what speed will I type with very long nails?? It is funny to imagine.

Well, Thankfully, I'm a boy, so I keep my fingernails pretty short, I haven't ever encountered a situation like having too long fingernails, long enough to make trouble for typing... I always keep my nails well-trimmed and short, Happy-Mylotting

Yeah, but very slowly and I hate being slow. hehehe

I think it is difficult to type when my nails are too long. I don't like to grow long the nails, cause it is not convinent for me to do anything. Maybe it is beautiful for some women,but I am not. I will do lots of works every day ,it is not comfortable for me. :) Happy mylotting.

I also have experience with my long nails. I typed the documents at the night and suddenly my long nails created the problem. My long nails do not deliberately shut down my Computer. Now I don't have long nail.. Thank you..

My nails are pretty long and, obviously, I type quite slowly, or, if I try quick typing I make a lot of mistakes. Well, it`s simply one of those small complications of the everyday life with long nails. But still, they are worth of it! They are so beautiful, so sexy... I still like them.

Well as I make a lot of typos with a well manicured nails imagine me typing with long fingers.It will make you go crazy to read and understand what I would type with ling finger nails.

I used to be able to grow my nails long and I used to like them that way. Yes I am a man. However as I aged I find my nails impossible to grow as when the get anywhere above the nail bed the split or break and this goes into the nail bed so I have to trim them constantly short. What is needed is a new keyboard design where the keys are round or oval to fit the pads of the fingers and tiered so that first it is not so awkward as typing on a flat keyboard and it allow the top of the finger with a nail to rest in between the tiers on the keys. Maybe I will design one and patent it.

That very difficult if we have long nails when typing on the keyboard with fast, i always cut my nails every time i have long nails. that can make me stress, if we want to complete the task quickly, but we can not.

Well, I'm a man so I don't have that particular problem but I do find that switching to my laptop or a different keyboard slows me down. I have picked up my typing skills considerably since posting here on mylot and also writing articles and reviews on others. I used to use "Typing Instructor Deluxe" to sharpen my skills but haven't used it in a while. I think I will try it later and see what my word-per-minute is now. It also has a cool shark game for honing your typing skills as well as others.

My nails are always keeping short so it's ok with me now,I don't long nails fit for typing on the keyboard as I can imagine.

Me too. I find it difficult to use my keyboard when I've had such long nails. So, just like you, I always keep it short. Have a great day!
