Description:
A perky little machine, I'd be happy to type on this 74 year-old all day long. The same could be said for most of the older Remington portables. Although most portables stuck in the age of plastic keyboards allow you to cheat and still see what it is that you're typing, on these you need to adopt the proper seating position or the type is obscured by the ribbon. Not a big deal, but it is a reminder of how the ergonomic relationship has changed.
