TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Yes... capitalizing like mad was how they wrote in "those days."
But rather than look to the past for standards, we need to keep up with the times... I mean, maybe my great-granddaddy rode around in "Horseless Carriages", but today, he'd be riding in a car. My point being... some words... especially those surrounding technology, evolve over time. That's why I'm down for "spacebar"; that's how the young techies spell it.

In this old Corona Owner's Manual, you will find "Space Bar" on page 2.
Throughout the manual, you will many capitalized nouns.
