Hi, I'm old. I learned to type on this: My first reports were typed on this: My first attempts at fiction were typed on this: Know what technology fuckin' deserved to die? I say this, knowing a guy who made a fuckn documentary on typewriters. Fuck typewriters. But especially FUCK typewriters that can't even put ink on paper. (full disclosure - I occasionally toy with buying a Groma Kolibri off eBay, but that's only because they're East German, ridiculously tiny, and part of a key plot point in The Lives of Others. I would never attempt to use it, nor pretend that it would be anything other than a twee object of fetishism)
