I got 74 WPM, but for some reason it's not allowing me to embed images. It says you aren't allowed to use this file extension with both .PNG and .JPG files.

 

I'm usually somewhere around 75-80WPM, depending on the test.

Not a very reliable test though, on a real world scenario 120 is closer to my true speed

Red switches? I use them too, they are good for gaming but when it comes to typing...

Probably could have typed faster on blues for sure, but reds ain't all that bad, you guys make it sound as if it's worse than membranes :(

They are awesome. I have a quickfire rapid that i'm typing on now and gaming is awesome. Typing just has a longer learning curve. When i first had this keyboard, I made so many typos it burnt my brain.

Yeah that's the main problem with reds >.>

So many typos! Until you start to get used to it you still get more errors than on a membrane

Around 5 months :)

First mech obtained at December 2012! Wanted browns at first but there was a global shortage of brown switches at the time and i can get mine for like $110USD from a warehouse sale, too good to pass up! Settled with reds in the end.

Right now I'm getting about 59 WPM on my Model M, however it's 1:30 AM and freezing, so my hand's aren't warmed up (at least, that's my excuse). I've hit around 70WPM before in better conditions
