Though marginalized by general-purpose computers, here's an article about how typewriters can still be found here and there.  As a kid I learned to touch type on a old manual Underwood myself, which necessitated really whacking the keys, a habit I had to un-learn in later years when I moved to electric typewriters and then personal computers and "daisywheel" printers.  There's probably something positive to be said about having to "crystallize each phrase" before putting it down indelibly on paper -- but not by me!  God bless the backspace.
