Feature Set:  

The strength of Nimble Fingers is in its many drills and tests—there are literally hundreds, including a few exercises that are often overlooked, such as 10-key and financial typing practice.

This typing program also offers typing flashcards: you see a word—such as a state name—then after you begin typing the word disappears and you must complete it from memory. This is an often-overlooked method to build speed and accuracy.

You can download additional practice text from Prof Ware or add your own practice material—and that's a bonus because much of the tying text in this typing software is kind of dry.

The user options section is limited—you have a few sound options and can reset the password, but that's about all. Again, this is a simple program.

Ease of Installation:  

We didn't have any trouble installing Prof Ware's Nimble Fingers.
