  No, like typewriter stuff. Most prisoners are not given any access to computers.

    Probably this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_Selectric_typewriter http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_Selectric_typewriter The golf-ball typing element has a lever at the top, which opens to unlock the ball in order to change fonts. Besides the carbon ribbon, there's also a small white-out ribbon, to correct mistakes.

    Check this out: http://www.swintec.com/8-clear-typewriters http://www.swintec.com/8-clear-typewriters These are typewriters specifically made for US prisons. They're that way so stuff can't be hidden so easily. Also note the state by state models which differ on amount of memory allowed.

      You know, if I occasionally needed a typewriter, I might buy one of these purely for the sake of niftiness.
