usually between 98-107 without errors.
Edit: Tried the text on the link, 97 wpm on the first try. I'm sure I can get faster, though.

56 with 2 errors.. Anyone over 70 is a robot, or an admin assistant.

For the record I am neither a robot, nor an admin assistant, but I got 101 wpm with no errors on the second try.
edit: and 107 wpm with 2 errors on the third, which is about my cap. Have never really gone much higher than that.

I tried that...copied the whole page though, so I got:
Your speed was: 3541wpm. You made 528 mistakes.
Guess I should've been happy with the 79wpm I got in the first place.

Your speed was: 104wpm.
You made 1 mistake, your mistake is shown in bold text:
The title of this work has not been chosen without the grave and solid deliberation which matters of importance demand from the prudent. Even its first, or general denomination, was the result of no common research or selection, although, according to the example of my predecesseors, I had only to seize upon the most sounding and euphonic surname that English history or topography affords, and elect it at once as the title of my work and the name of my hero. But, alas! what could my readers have expected from the chivalrous epithets of Howard, Mordaunt, Mortimer, or Stanley?
I'll do a second try in a bit to see if it goes up or not (cause some said there score went up on a second try).

121 with one error.
I can flat out fly because my handwriting is that of a five year old. I can actually go faster than 120 on the right keyboard. A responsive keyboard is critical to really get up there.
It's been such a handy skill for me, I would recommend anyone take a keyboarding course. Saves oodles of time.

Unlike my sister, my father never pushed me to practice. I've just done a lot of reports in high school/University over the years and also had 2 data entry jobs when I was in University.
