Do you still use or Have you used a typewriter?

i never ever use a typewriter before. i always use a computer to type everything. i dont think i would know how to use one if i do see a typewriter anywhere.

I still have an electric typewriter that I bought for myself many years ago when I started writing. I really don't know how I managed correcting errors and typos, but I did. I didn't writ near so much as I do now I have a computer, that's for sure. I don't think anybody would want my electric typewriter now even if I offered it to them for free, so it's collecting dust somewhere in the attic. - Derek

I had a typewriter before I ever got my first computer. I could type on the typewiter very well. But I'm go glad I got a computer. There is so much more you can do on the computer that you can't do on the typewriter...especially like getting on the internet. And you don't have to worry about trying to line up the sides to type in the margins and stuff either.

I actually haven't used a typewriter since highschool either. But I grew up typing everything, in fact I was typing before I was writing. It just became a thing for me to do, I was a very slow writer. Not that I didn't know what to say I just had difficulty with holding a pen and writing. I don't use a typewriter now, I have a laptop which I love.

Hello brienn.Ü In my younger years, we were using typewriter for doing reports. My sisters even had a typewriting class. They should be used in typing without looking to the keys. I remembered how hard it is to punch those keys while typing. Some were stuck and we have to put them down manually. I also remembered using liquid paper whenever we committed mistakes. We didn't actually had the typing class cause it was already outdated. When we were in grade 6, we were taught to handle computers and had our computer class. If my memory served me right, i think we still have our 2 typewriters in our old house.

My father sometimes types on the typewriter although he has a laptop.He is fascinated by the old machine.We bought it in 1999.Ten years has passed.When I was a little girl,I was keen on the sound the typewritter made.The typewriter has witnessed a history of technology ,human's innovations and breakthroughs.

I used a typewriter when I was in junior high. It was the first thing I could write on without tiring my fingers. I have a disability and typing no longer required me to write by hand. I was overjoyed. Not as overjoyed, of course, when I discovered word processing and things like spell check (thank god for that!). I'm a terrible speller and always thought that would hamper my writing career. Now, however, I don't have to spell or write. This is happy.

Although my Mother worked as a Secretary/Typist in the 70's,We never had a typewriter at home,except for one of those (Lilliput?) "Junior" ones my sister had when She was about 8..I've never had the training or need to use one at school or in college,and it wasn't until I got my first computer (A Commodore 64!) and a printer to go with it that I started using word processing software for the first time..Unless You don't have an electricity supply where you live or where you're travelling,or just want to live off the grid,nowadays I don't see there's any need to buy a typewriter-with cheap computers and email,a typewriter is obselescent..

i hate typewriters. i mean the ones we purchased and had before. cause the keyboard is kind hard to hit. and you need to press it hard for it to go down and type a letter. cause ours is kind of cheap kind. the soft key and easy to use typewriters quite more expensive. i don't use typewriter before cause it is hard to use. and of course because the computer became popular back in the early 1990's and so i didn't have the chance to use the typewriter that much. thankfully we have the computer now.

I don't nowadays most people have that kind of gadget? For I didn't use and or don't have typewriter...most people using electronics or computer to type kinds of documents Have a great day!

I learn to type using typewriter at my home. Then, at school with the typing subjects..Then..typewriter becomes obsolete..i learn to type and print using my computer..It easy and i could make many copies..The only disadvantage if i have no ink or their is a power failure..I could not type or make a print..With typewriters still around..I used it and it is a hard labor typing as when you commit mistakes you have to type and start over and over again..Then, you could not make many copies only using carbon paper which is very dark..But..I am really amaze with the judge stenographer as they type faster with short notes and even without looking on the keyboard..They memorize all the keyboard in old typist using typewriter without even looking.they are fast and hardly commit mistakes..Computer really is a convenient tools...and typewriter being around you could still used it when you run out of ink and their is power failure..that is a manual typewriter using a rainbow..and not the electronic typewriter..

I like to help my mom typing when I was child and at that time, we still use typewriter. I like hearing its sound and movement everytime I hit the key. Now, my mom still use typewriter because it's faster,she said that. And she can type on receipt or on a small piece of legal paper with it. I learn typing with computer and I think computer is better in some aspect, because you can delete your typo and add many content into your write, we can't do that in typewriter. But if there's virus attack that computer, the you will lose all your data there, when typewriter can't be attacked by virus^^,, Eventhough I still use computer, but I like typewriter too, since it's practice, no need electricity and no virus..and I love its sound,,makes me remember my childhood time

Be honest, I have never used a typewriter before. I always use computer instead, but I wish that I can try a typewriter one day.

Its been a long time since the last time we use our typewriter. I don't even remember when was the last time but i know its been a long time now.Its in the stock room and no use it. During my time when i was single and young then i used that typewriter. Its a very old one and neglected now. Though it works fine, still no one used it now since we used computer already.

hi brienn!^^ i can't remember if i ever used our old typewriter in writing my school paper, reports, etc. but i do remember that i used it in typing all those fictional stories i wrote using my favorite cartoon characters as the lead characters. ^^;; i loved writing fan fiction then. in a way it helped my typing skills too. we had a typing class back in high school and typing at home gave me the daily exercise. LOL we still use typewriters here at the office too. we use it to type data into pre-made forms. but i don't use typewriter anymore at home because i already have a pc. and i don't know where our old typewriter is now.^^

i learnt typing on a good old typewriter in school. still remember my teacher making us type 'the quick brown fox jump over the lazy dog' so many times over. thankfully computers became the norm when i went on to tertiary education. i cannot imagine using a typewriter to type all my assignments. i am prone to error so i'll be wasting lots of correction fluid and paper. worse is i will be submitted a paper which is full of obvious corrections.

I just had a garbage sale last weekend. I sold two of those ancient machines to a little girl and her brother. They are the landlords children. Both of em for a dollar. They were having a blast with them typewritters.

i have heard typewriter before, but never touch it yet. when i went to the senior school,it was my first time to learn computer, at that times, computer is very popular,and the typewriter is hardly to use it.so i use the desktop straight,good luck and have a nice day!

We used to use typewriters all the time when I was in college. My course was journalism. Our professors always required us to bring typewriters because it was the cheapest way to train us. We used typewriters in writing news, features, and other stuff.

Same thing with you I use typwriter from grade 3 to highschool. On my college days there was already a conmputer. It helps a too to speed my typing skills and my work to be done early.
