How can I help a long-nailed person type? [closed]

My mom has long nails and she is PROUD of them. Sometimes she needs to do something at the computer. When it concerns typing text, she does that using two pencils holding them in two hands. Or sometimes - one pencil in one hand. This method of typing is very slow and tiresome.

So... the question is - is there any method of fast and convenient typing for long-nailed women? May be some special gadget or special keyboard?


Solution 1:

See this thread : How do you type with long nails?

Apparently it's quite possible to type despite long nails and without any mechanical aid such as pencils.

One just has to hold the hands at the right angle and use the pads of the fingers. It seems to take some training, but is then quite efficient (although not as much as when typing with clipped nails).

Solution 2:

I think your mother needs to make a value judgement as to whether typing or nails are more important to her. You can't always have it both ways in this life. ;)
