I got half that.. =\ 70wpm.

edit: I don't use any orthodox typing methods either (qwerty, etc.) my fingers are just sprawled over the keyboard naturally. I just touch-type etc so whatever works works.

Ahaha keyboarding class. That was the only class in HS I came remotely close to failing. The teacher gave me a 65 because he liked me. I freaking SUCKED at typing, like just couldn't get it. Now I'm better thanks to the internet.
