Hunt N' Peck II

[west]

Come on writers. No one answered my original post. It's important to me.
Most of us are fairly good typists, I am not and it's very frustrating. I
really need to know if you can recommend a Tutoring Software or will I be
better off enrolling in a Keyboard I (beginners) & Keyboard II (advance)
classes at the local Community College. Thank you very much.

Unless you have iron self discipline, do the course. The regimented
class environment is the quickest and best way to learn a manual skill.

Caveat: because the regimented class environment works well for teaching
rudimentary skills to fuckskulls such as Penrose is no reason to assume it
works well for reaching those with undamaged brains.

Heh. Still the same ol grade school. Every time I come into the
basement to check out Usenet, I end up having to rinse the slime off
afterward.
