>I DO have an idea, also know if you have a type writter you are pretty good at typing. So what does the typewritter REALLY mean?

My copy pasta on this:

Thoughts on typewriter.

I don't see a typewriter fascination.

I see old Smith-Corona PORTABLE mechanical typewriters. These things are a complete bitch to type on unless you do it VERY regularly. There's a key sink of over a 1/2", the impact on the key is responsible for the boldness of the printed letter etc. Look at Madonna's example, it's awful. She can't use that device to format a letter. Then there's typos. Computers have made accuracy a low priority. Those old mechanicals it was a HIGH priority. You can't slop a half pound of white out on a page.

Also, if using a typewriter to type messages was important, you'd go with an IBM Selectric. Light key strike, consistant impact on paper, consistent text alignment, erase tape for errors, etc.

So the device is what's important.

Smith-Corona

Portable

Mechanical

It may be something as simple as:

S-C=CoV19 related coms required

Portable-I'm on the road, or I need to travel

Mechanical-Low tech device/analogue.
