    Typewriter Sounds

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how I can make my laptop sound like a typewriter, whenever I am typing??
    Is there any free software out there that can do this?
    Can anyone advise me on this please?



    Regards
    Rip

    Well, why not?
    I don't mind the old typewriter sound.
    Just curious, that's all..
    Maybe there is someone out there who knows where I can get the typewriter keyboard ?
    Thanks anyway.

    I haven't seen any for over 20 years. I do remember some early computers came with such sounds, 8-bit, so users who were 'used to typewriters wouldn't become confused by the lack of sound when they pressed a key'. Yes, a paraphrase of the info included with the software.

    Incredimail has that option when typing a new mail, but for anything else I'm afraid I'm lost for any suggestions.

    Well, if you do a Google search, you'll find lots of programmes capable of doing just that but most of the ones I found are so old that not even XP is supported.

    Good luck in your search!
