I have a couple of PCs, but a typewriter as well. I've used many in my life... I love them. I find that they work better for me than computers when trying to work through a writer's block. When typing on a computer, it's too easy to erase what I've written, so I am constantly editing what I write, which distracts the train of thought. I'd rather just write and do the editing later, and a typewriter helps me stick to that. And yeah, there's the nostalgic, romantic part to it, that is true as well.
