  That's the one I like (after seeing the picture, never knew the model number).
  And going back to typewriters, I always like the feel of the Royal.
  When I was in college and worked on the school paper as a movie reviewer
I would wait in line to use the old Royal upright, though Oliveti's (sp)
were available.  :)
  I had a Smith Corona portable I bought used c. 1971 and used it for years
and years and really liked the feel of that keyboard.  I bought it mainly
for the feel.  :)
