Couldn't resist a good chuckle...

30 mins to type out a post.... Must be a Hunt'N'Pecker....

I can type at a decent rate. However a thoughtful reply (at least 5 paragraphs is a different story). According to my watch, this reply took me 72 seconds.

Yup!

The thing that I REALLY hate about IE 6, is that the stupid STATUS BAR always goes away. Man, that is annoying. Anybody know how to fix this???

Did you ever realize that if you happen to push backspace while typing a message, that you can hit the "forward" button and it will take you right back to where you were, with the message still intact (I just tried it and it works for me with IE6/WinXP).
As for typing speed, I can type pretty fast (not sure exactly how fast), but my problem is that I make so many mistakes, it's like forward 3 letters, back 2.

My post that complained about that said that it works fine with Anandtech (read my edit). However many other sites will give you this warning (or some similar warning):


<< Warning: Page has Expired The page you requested was created using information you submitted in a form. This page is no longer available. As a security precaution, Internet Explorer does not automatically resubmit your information for you. >>



Thus you lose your data.
