I've been able to go as high as 156wpm on real tests, but I average ~130wpm or so under normal conditions.

[cerebusPu]

76 wpm with 93% accuracy. i suck at capitalization and punctuation. i just dont know where the keys for punctuation are.

 

[Malak]

For anyone less than 80 wpm, try playing text adventures for a while. It could very well triple your speed.

 

[Ticks]

80

Not fast enough. I'm slow. Hell, it takes me forever to just type out one post on ATOT.

[SWScorch]

65 WPM, 2 errors, 96%

I type with two fingers too, and look at the keyboard

 

[Sketcher]

93wpm 100% accuracy.

Comprehensive tests however include more than text. Add in number row and upper registry symbols or 10-key and it's a mixed bag; though I'm good on 10-key.

Oh, and that was me using a laptop with a keyboard style that I'm not familiar with, while sitting in a rocking chair, holding the laptop on my lap. I'm faster when at my desk, on my keyboard

 

[dennisjai215]

ew im only at 60wpm @ 98% accuracy.. i dont use the asdf jkl; style... i just go freestyle on it ... bleh

 

[saxophonoia]

[randal]

173/165, 95% ... I've taken those tests so many times, though, that I've memorized most of them. I average ~120wpm on normal typing. (IT guy during the day, did text entry for while in HS)

 

[Zenmervolt]

Very slowly.

Funny thing - I found this today and did it. I hit 96 the first time on default settings and 106 the second. That was net rate, after the errors taken into account, which were 88 and 96% on first and second attempts, respectively.

That's what started me out. Kings quest 2!

75 wpm but the problem is my laptop a Compaq X1000 has only one fatal fall the shift key works when it wants to. I can usually get the first caps key but the second doesn't go through usually bringing down my accuracy.
