My elementary school required us to learn how to type. I didn't learn much actually, I knew how to type because I always was using the computer for stuff. All I got out of that was a good grade.

I got a 151% in keyboarding class. Most kids didn't even know how to type.

You can pretty much ignore the times on that, I rarely ever have Xfire on when I play. I should, though.

I average about 58 WPM - screw the home-row XPBackfire-esque! I use whatever finger gets to the key first Hey, that's funny.

Im currently working on making tank-wars in VB, taking me forever to program it... im also messing around and 'hacking' with VB aswell, I can access whatever I want/need on the school comps, and I can delete windows if I really want to...

I Don't know enough C++ to get anywhere with it, too bad. Im not that great in java either... but VB/HTML (sorta PHP) im good in.

PHP is a lot like C++ from what I know. I think PHP was based off it.

Apple ][s can't have Mac OS, there is a reason it's called Mac OS. The Apple ][gs however can have what I think is called GSOS that looks like Mac OS.

I made a few of the site's images on a Power Mac 6100, it has better graphics tools for some reason. Most of the images were made in the GIMP because I wasn't going to do them all on a Mac just to say it was done on a Mac.

Ahh, you use GIMP. I've always wondered how to use that thing. I use Paint Shop Pro 7 to do my images.

all it's really missing is advanced image adjustments and calculations. I dunno about you, but unless I'm making crop circles, I don't really perform addition/subtraction/multiplication/division on alpha channels that much. although elements does take out stuff like hue/saturation, brightness/contrast, and maybe even invert. I've only used it once on my mom's pc, I have cs. from what I know 99.9% of the filters are still left in.

Photoshop elements 2.0 is better than anything else out there. Unfortunatly I can't use it as I have a PC. Typing-back in middle school they made us use ultrkey.
I used to be able to do about 130 WPM. Now I Don't use more than 3 fingers to type, but im still faster then a lot of people who type correctly. In high school, typing correctly doesn't matter-only getting stuff done counts.
