MY TWO WHOLE FING---Ok.
Re: MY TWO WHOLE FING---Ok.
Nine when touch typing on a QWERTY keyboard.
Four when single-handed typing with my right hand on a QWERTY keyboard. I use all five fingers when I use my left hand. If I'm working with two keyboards I'll use five on right, while using three on my left hand.
I'm still learning dvorak, so I have to use the more agile index, middle, and pointer fingers rather than the pinky and ring finger.
When using text editors, I have to let my left hand dominate the keys from QAZ to YHB because my right hand needs to be closer to the function keys. Ironically, I prefer notebook keyboards for having these keys closer to the alpha-numeric ones.
I also absolutely hate it when keyboards have a lot of travel downwards, yet do not register a key before almost completely being pressed. It's a rich source of omitted characters and when a key will register in the wrong order, ofte nresulting inth is. Extremely frustrating it is, especially when trying to enter commands when I have no screen output.

Re: MY TWO WHOLE FING---Ok.
At most I'll use 8 fingers, but generally I only use 6.

Re: MY TWO WHOLE FING---Ok.
Wow, I've never really paid that much attention to how many fingers I use to type, but I suppose it would be all ten. When I first started typing up this reply, I was going to say that I only use 9, because even when I go to hit backspace I hit it with my ring finger rather than my pinkie, but I got to the second word in this post and realised that I had just used my right hand pinkie for '. That's the ONLY time I use the pinkie on my right hand, but I guess that would still count it as using all ten fingers.
PS. I just thought about it even more, and I also use my pinkie for /.
Wow, I went really into detail there, lol

Re: MY TWO WHOLE FING---Ok.
I'm using two thumbs at the moment, but I can't remember what I use normally.
I sometimes use one thumb and my index fingers.
Most often I use the fingers on my left hand and thumbs and fngers on my right hand. That's 9 fingers.

Eh, I share Kaome's finger-typing. But occasionally I'll slip into my two pointer fingers.

Re: MY TWO WHOLE FING---Ok.
Alrighty, I'm gonna type up some random stuff to see how many fingers I use.
7. Not telling which ones.

Re: MY TWO WHOLE FING---Ok.
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
Alphabets go to my left and right Index and Ring fingers. Numbers are to my middles, Shifts, enters, Alt, Cntrls, and so on are my Ring fingers. Occassionally I use my middle fingers to type alphabets. Left thumb is for the spacebar.
I'm left-handed o_O, but I use my mouse-y in the right hand. (That's a random fact for ya)

Re: MY TWO WHOLE FING---Ok.
It's either all ten, or all except my left thumb. I generally use my right index finger for space, but I think I've used my left thumb for it a few times in the past, too.

It's not really a big problem since it's the off-topic forum. Just refrain from threadomancing in the other forums.

I don't actually consider either Metaphorical or Black_Heart's posts necromancy, as they both contributed to the main topic.
And yes, storyteller, Black_Heart was the original one who nercomanced, Metaphorical just posted in it afterwords.
