I don't look at the keyboard when I type.

It wouldn't bother me that much. I can type without seeing the keys, I might take a few backspaces if I have a symbol like the #,$,%,^ as you said. Other than that though, I would be more pissed off that someone painted my keyboard black.

I'd just get one of the other keyboards from ym house and re-write all the letters. Although, it would be fun to leave it for a while and watch my mum try to work.

I don't normally look at my keys - just a little, so I guess with a bit of practice I could use a keyboard without the keys.

I usually don't look at the keyboard except when I start a new sentence or I notice I made an error or typo.

It would take me a few weeks to get fully used to it but sometimes I type with my eyes looking at the screen not the keyboard so I guess I've got it pretty well remembered.

I would open the screen keyboard thingy and go from there, either painting the letters back on (if they were scratched off) or scratch them in the paint (if my keyboard was painted). So, five minutes of annoyance, followed by my normal way of business.

Hooray, pragmatism!

id be fine, as for the rest on here that say they would fail with out them
you all are lying and you know it, you could do fine, you would just be a little slower.
so some of you wouldnt be posting as much, or you would take you sweet time to think about it before you did, either way would be a good thing in my book.

Just a little slower I guess, maybe even just as normal, although I wouldn't be bothered fixing errors as much though.

Open up Word, type every key and mark on it what it does in Tip-Ex (or other non-branded corrector fluid) what key does what.

Problem solved.

Then charge the fucker £56.00 for a new keyboard. I quite fancy a Razer Arctosa. Do you?

I wouldn't know what to do. Then again, I typed most of this message without looking at my keyboard. Still fucked up a bit though.

I type a lot, so I know where every key is. It wouldn't be a big deal to me at all. Can't say it wouldn't be funny to do to someone else though.. >:D

I know where all the letters are and know what each of the 'capital' numbers are. So it wouldn't effect me much.

It doesn't. I'm so used to typing, I mostly know where the keys are. Sometimes I have to delete and go back but besides that, nope, I'm fine.

I've made my mind up, there's going to be trouble.

You can buy keyboards like that already. I use blank keys just to keep any morons in the house from using my computer.

Eh, not looking at the keyboard while typing for 10 years has kinda readied me if something happened like this, tbh i wouldnt care.

I can type words on a table because ive memorised where all the keys are.

All my keys have LEDs in them, so it would shine through the paint.

On one of my old keyboards all the letters had pretty much rubbed off because it was used that much, I got used to it. Touch typing is easy really, like everything else it just needs practice.

I guess someone already painted over your Shift and Caps buttons, judging from that post.
