Hummm, seems like my new laptop has dyslexia and can't spell worth a hoot! Ever notice that when you change from a desktop to a laptop? :lol: :lol:

YES!!!! I always thought that I got a "bad" laptop....one with little gremlins in it!!! :twisted: I would type and then fast as lightening they would retype before I could blink an eye!!!! :twisted:
Those flat keyboards are as hard to type as a flat tire is hard to drive on!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I was thinking about getting a lap top, but I have trouble "spelling" now LOL Anything that begins with p , has a j in front of it? I'm sure it is my keyboard, and not me!!!
I think I need to cut my nails, maybe that will help.

Yes, most of the time I am on a desk top. At work I have one of those ergonomic keyboards and I am very used to it. I get home and have a "normal" keyboard on the computer and it messes me up a little. Then when DH is on the main computer, sometimes I will pull out the laptop and I cannot type on that keyboard. I make so many mistakes and hit the wrong keys. I usually try to get Dh on the laptop if I have some typing to do.

And I thought it was just me! I am having a terrible time with 2 laptops. They have different sensitivities and I miss spaces between words when I just key without looking. Just makes me pay better attention and proof before I hit "submit".
Thanks prettykitty! I needed that! :lol:
