[comp.sys.mac] Typing tutors for Mac

alex@vuwcomp.UUCP (Alex Heatley) (01/12/87)

We are currently looking for a good typing tutor for the Macintosh.
Has anyone on the net had experience with either commerical or PD
typing tutors ? There seem to be quite a number around for the dreaded
IBM PC but very few for the Mac.

Any help that people might be able to give would be appreciated. Could
you please e-mail your replies and I'll post a summary to the net if there
is interest. Can those replying from Australia please use the Acsnet Address
below. All others please use the UUCP address (not the path the article took). 

Thanks in advance

Trolls can often be found under bridges ... or in Computing Departments.

Two outstanding typing tutorials for the Mac:
Typing Made Easy, from Spinnaker.  Intelligent drills with a bonus Pac-Man
style maze typing game.
Typing Tutor III, from Simon and Scheuster.  Another good drill program with
an optional game called Rain that works sort of like Space Invaders.

Another video-game style typing instruction program is Mastertype.
