 interesting George, I never knew that, what are the other differences between 
our keyboards?

  I don't want to put a dampener on this this valuable advice, but please do 
bear in mind that the UK's PC keyboard differs in many ways from American ones, 
and indeed if I recall correctly, when I was training in South Africa, they 
keyboards were also not in line with UK ones.  (They don't have a Pound 
currency sign for a start - which is shifted 3)

  Hence, any keyboard typing tutor should specifically be aimed at UK keyboards.

  George.

  Hi Alan, 
  It's not free, but there's a program called Talking Typing Teacher from I 
think it is in Canada, a company called Marvle Soft. I know the National 
Council here in South Africa recommend it for beginning typing, I can't find 
the site, but you can get it from 
  www.independentliving.com
