Move over, Mavis

How many tyro typists has Mavis Beacon helped to master the intricacies of QWERTY? Millions, most likely. Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing Deluxe is available for Windows XP and Mac OS X at $39.95 and it's a bargain if you need to join the knowledge society, wherein keyboard skills are as essential as spear throwing was to our mastodon-hunting forefathers. But if cash is in short supply, head to www.keybr.com. English, German, French, Spanish, Italian and Russian as well as Dvorak and Colemak layouts are supported. Flash, it is. Clever, it is.
