84 wmp. But I think that is unfair. It ended in the middle of a word and complained that I misspelled it. Thus I really don't think that should count as an error.

I've never been a fast typer. But I was #1 in my high school class at 76 wpm (and that was using 2 fingers hunting and pecking).

97.

I'm using an old keyboard on a spare computer, if I had a newer ergonomic keyboard I'd have at least 110.

147 the first time, and 135 on the second. I can go faster on an ergonomic keyboard, and these Dell laptop keyboards flex too much.

Wow, that's impressive.

I find that I usually type slower on an ergo keyboard (although I much prefer them).

Liar.. the test only goes up to 135.... or 136.. something like that. I got that result from copying and pasting the entire text.
