I REMEMBER THOSE COMPUTERS! With the green-only display and dot-matrix printer too. (I still have my Win95 computer, it still works, I still have a shelf full of 3.5" floppies full of archives and I had a lot of fun transferring all of that to a single USB.)
Yeah, I've never seen a typing test where you can provide your own text so I have no idea how LKH is measuring her speed. Every single test -- online and off -- has provided their own text not just for how fast you are but also how accurate. I'm at 60wpm and could probably push myself to 70 or 80 if I've had enough coffee, but my accuracy goes straight to hell. I'd rather be slower and coherent.
Though really, you'd think that typing at that speed for any sustained amount of time would aggravate her arm? Not sure if it's RSI or an actual injury, but if she needs to have her arm iced during a signing, maintaining that kind of typing speed has got to hurt.
