Maybe someone will make a keyboard that is like a typewriter to help those of us that used typewriters in the past……might help with wrist issues and promote better posture while at your desk……
Is it time to upgrade my avatar???I had a typing class in grade school. We all had manual typewriters. There is nothing like the sounds in a room full of typewriters. Tap, tap, tap. Then the warning bell (ding) at the end of the line to let you know to finish the word . Then you would reach up with your left hand to push the return lever which advanced to the next line (thunk). If you made an error you had to go back and use Wite-out to cover up the wrong letter and type over it. I had a portable typewriter to take to college for term papers. It’s so much easier to have ChatGPT create your term papers now. :-)
I know it’s a comic, but, this tends to frost me! If it isn’t affecting you, mind your business! I’ve heard that, before…“you need to upgrade to digital cameras, you need to upgrade to a better phone…” If my “toys” work for me, then, take your opinions, and then, take a hike.

No, just no! It is perfect as it is. For the use which is intended to.
Get him a computer or whatever on another place, not at this beautiful writing spot at the window.

All I gotta say is I miss my typewriter, like mad!
Somehow the Clickety clack of keys and returning the bar was amazing!

That may be the enigma coding machine and therefore worth many $$$.

Kid’s right, get the new slim-line portable typewriter, in it’s own case…
