I had a job back in the early 90s that partly involved using a system that used 12" floppy discs (seriously). It was for orders and invoices at a food manufacturer, and I had to learn the concepts because they were going to switch to something new, but I had to understand the old first. I didn't do it often, but even in my first session, I would get enough entries in that I would fill the buffer, then take a break while it caught up.

The online typing tests I've used require you to type the text they provide, not your own, so I'm definitely boggling over that point. [citation needed] indeed. I type in the 80+ range and I'm only a few years younger than LKH, and the highest I've personally seen from anyone is 120 wpm.

It might be theoretically possible to hit 200 wpm if she's counting "Typing out word vomit that makes no sense." ;)
