So seems my keyboard is showing a WPM of anywhere between 140 - 160 for me (this is after correction for errors and the standard penalty)... however my accuracyis showing as only 96%. I think It is largely due to the new keyboard though. I expect as I get used to it my accuracy may rise a % or two.

@freemo out of curiosity, and for an apples-to-apples comparison since I don't have a self-monitoring keyboard like that: could you let me know what sort of numbers you get on typeracer? I'm usually in the mid-eighties, and I don't think I've ever seen someone hit >120 in one of my races. So I'm curious whether it's down to difference in measurement methodology or your speeds are actually that far ahead of anyone else I've seen.

@khird My guess is that im much higher largely because I am typing as I think rather than transcribing from a piece of paper, where I'd expect ill be slower.

But yea ill be happy to, i never got lower than 140 on a test I took before (as a child i was at world record levels for the time).
