I'm currently typing at the speed of somewhere in the ballpark of 55 to 70 WPM with 4 fingers.

Wbu?

I can type with 120-140 wpm using most of my fingers :D

Can type words without looking on the keyboard as well :D

I type very fast and fairly well because I was taught typing in computer class back in 6th and 7th grade. The teacher would make us put a bandanna over our hands and keyboard so we couldn't see the keys, and oh trust me when I say I hated it back then but I couldn't be more thankful for it today. I also owe a lot of my typing speed to HF as I'm here typing something on a daily basis.

My WPM:

Depends about the keyboard for me, don't use all of my fingers, 8 max I think, I'm usually a little bit over 100wpm, 120 sometimes when I try to type fast

I average at 80-120 WPM depending on the day, and yes... who wouldn't use all fingers? I used to do that as a kid like 12 years ago

I can do around 60-70 wpm while typing with all fingers. Not used to typing on this laptop and I'm more used to typing on a keyboard though.

I can do around 100 WPM, i type with both hands.
My position changes with each keyboard, some are higher then others, some are softer then others.
Should adjust yourself to type fast

I cap out at 140 and usually get 120 consistently. I only type with my 2 index fingers.

Wow, That amount of speed with just 2 fingers.

Yeah, I just never learned the proper way. It's pretty great to see the reactions from other people when they see it.

edit: I use my right thumb for spacebar.

70-100. But i'd say my average is around 70-85. I type with most of my fingers, but obviously not my pinkies :D

Tested myself for a bit while job-hunting a little while back; 6 fingers, 85 wpm.

My maximum was 140 in high-school. Now I'm at about 119.

I use only a few fingers but still type pretty fast, I am observing myself type right now and i only use my right thumb for the space bar and i dont use the left one, I also only type with my middle fingers apparently and sometimes my pointer fingers. I need to learn how to become a more efficient typer.
