Visit the Typing Test and try!
Rubbish... interestingly I can do it much better in German than in English. German efficiency I guess...

arghhh! well done! but you didn't paste the number of keystrokes! as thats more important because the speed will vary slightly depending on the average length of words... ok game on!

I think i've hit a barrier, I can't go past 480 strokes 
Edit: just did 499 strokes! Time to cut my nails, my fingers keep slipping when I hit the buttons! (This could really have a secondary meaning now!)

I'm pretty sure the keystrokes is taken into account when calculating the final result...  |
