Curious about the machine I typed that last post on? Here's a video featuring the very model. (Mine's black, though.)
Frenchwomen, typewriters, and cigarettes -- I really do wish this video went on for hours and hours. (Although you could give the smoke to something a little more attractive than that Burt Reynolds look-alike.)
Little Flower Petals picked up one of those clicky Model-M style keyboards I've been coveting forever. She mentioned that the Selectric just isn't the same as the clicky keyboard, and it's not. It's much louder. I hope she has the chance to turn one on someday and discover this for herself. It's a pleasure not to be missed!
