How can you be slow copying text? Just Ctrl + C followed by Ctrl + V

hmm on this i just got 72 WPM and made no mistakes

http://www.typeonline.co.uk/typingspeed.php?

It's harder than normal typing though as I'm having to read at the same time, I think I write when I'm just thinking a lot faster than that.

plus they require you to click start and stop when your done. which means for a moment your not typing either side and loads of punctuation.

Yeh considering copying words a sec ago on that crap site, I got 80 WPM with no errors... and that felt a bit slow, I think when I type on here or on MSN i must be typing well over like 100 WPM!

Ian get a applet made that does it

Well, because it is designed to stop you copying and pasting ?

if you copy + paste it puts commas between every word! that's how much notice you paid to it!
