I tend to use 'type' for the same reasons cited by Ana and Brian (enter =
data vs the Enter key). However, I also use 'type' because I know that =
my audience is susceptible to confusion when confronted with a computer =
(one of our users recently opened the online help, sat at her terminal =
for a couple of minutes, then rang our Help Desk in despair because it =
didn't "do anything". No, not joking.)

Thanks and regards
