Take this test (http://www.typingtest.com/default.asp?m=1), and see how fast and accurate you are. My results are mediocre, at best:
Net Speed: 40 WPM
(words/minute)
Accuracy: 80%
Gross Speed: 50 WPM
(words/minute)

I typed awful, I froze up and couldn't type well at all. I misspelled everything.

I've never, ever been nervous taking any sort of test in my life, but for some reason this one got to me.

Because of that, 22 WPM. Yeah.

It didn't work for me. I typed the paragraph, and everything seemed to be okay, but the end result said 0 wpm. Twice.

Though to be fair, I've spent about 60% of my time typing since I starting playing Diablo I and Warcraft II in 1996.

Well that was pants. I can type faster and more accurately if I'm looking at the keyboard, and don't have to read something at the same time, however.
