Brown Office Royal is what I learned to type on. Still miss the bell and ratchet sound. When I got my first computer at work, I was kinda hard on the key boards; I've learned a lighter touch since then.

My Mom never got to the point where she didn't miss the sound and feel of a typewriter, even after years of using the computers. She didn't mind the old "clicky" keyboards quite as much as the newer ones, but even so, they bothered her.

Name sounds familiar. Our high school would have had old ones, when I took it in 1969-70, so there's no telling what they were.
