The ads about a typewriter. Feel nostale. I wish i can acquire a newly product typewriter with good price (pricing as an device to be use rather than an ancient rare decor).

I wonder why mostly typewriter person are female. Is there any man who work with typewriter or computer those day ?

Nowaday it is opposite, most computer/software employee are man.

If typewriter is mass product and cheap enough, i think people will buy it for everyday use, or at least for hobby.

Use typewriter is like the hybrid of laptop and pen&paper. You want to brainstorm idea, or want to have fun writing but don't want to hold the pen and write, then typewriter is best fit. Laptop is having a monitor, which is not suit for you when what you need is paper.
