Re: Data Entry

You also get best results with a manual typewriter if you type with a metronome like cadence. When I use my 1928 Remington portable, I can't type "the" as I do with a computer. It is very easy to strike the t and the h so quickly that the type hammers don't clear each other. In fact when I learned to type in in school it was at times accompanied by music with metronome like clicks. The IBM Selectrics for my second year did not require nice cadence and could go much faster than my fingers.
