The world of typing has changed. In the 1970s, every business had rooms full of secretaries whose job it was to type letters that had been hand-written. They were copying the writing into a more readable format. In the early 1980s, the personal computer became a common office machine.
—from Keyboarding Made Simple (1985), a book by Leigh E. Zeitz, Ph.D.
