In fact, the technology for teaching typing skills hasn’t improved much since back then, although you can now take a simple typing speed test online. It was pretty advanced technology back in the 1990’s. When I was around 8 years old, my family bought a computer and some typing software that not only taught you how to type like a professional, including the correct placement of your hands and tips for increased productivity, it also included a little speed typing test that would calculate exactly how many words per minute (WPM) you type.
