I agree with all of you with all the cons about it. I wouldn't really replace my laptop with a typewriter. I probably would never try to write a paper for school with it either. <br />It is still a nice thing to have though.

As a kid, I loved to try out the typewriters at Sears. Such a thrill when my parents bought me one in highschool. It had a corrector ribbon-- too cool--- but still a pain compared to a computer.<br /><br /> My poor brother still has nightmares of clacking typewriters. I always waited till the last minute to do research papers so I'd be up at 2 or 3 in the morning typing--- drove him mad.Lesahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05102907186589066829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868395077988310106.post-53409620615623185212010-03-24T14:57:21.454-07:002010-03-24T14:57:21.454-07:00ok they may look nice but I went through college a...ok they may look nice but I went through college and grad school on a type writer in the pre-pc days and you really do not want to do that now!!!-great write upMel uhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08714473754458914681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868395077988310106.post-31140352703224328392010-03-24T14:45:02.485-07:002010-03-24T14:45:02.485-07:00You always put up the prettiest pictures.
