Learning to touch type can make a huge difference to the ease of using a computer.

Better Typing is a cheap alternative to the expensive training alternatives. It displays an image of the keyboard on the screen.

Colour coding is used to show which keys are pressed with each finger.

As you type, the text bar along the top of the keyboard shows the entered text. This has the added advantage of being slightly larger than ordinary text and always being in the same place.

This extra feature makes Better Typing more useful than using a printed picture of the keyboard.

The full version can be used to learn the Dvorak layout without buying a new keyboard. Dvorak is faster than QWERTY and needs less finger movement.

Minimum hardware requirements:
- Processor: 300 MHz
- Memory: 64 MB
- HD: at least 50 MB
