If we were in the typewriter era, would discussions about typewriters be
annoyingly off-topic? How about dedicated (-purpose) electronic portable
word processors, like fancy electronic typewriters? The latter seem never
to have been commonplace, but they are definitely used only for writing,
afaik.
