Yeah, yesterday I had a cup of Grapefruit Juice in front me, while sitting at the PC. My younger cousin is over, my brother (Xnay) is watching her for a couple weeks while my Aunt/Uncle are out on a Cruise. Well, she came running into my bedroom, trying to see what I was up to. Came up to the desk, climbed onto my chair (not uncommon) and just sat there. After a few minutes, she decided to get down, and kicked over the glass doing so I tried to clean out the keyboard, popped the keys off, cleaned it as much as I could. Seemed to work...until I went to type something into the Address Bar, and the "H" can out as "HF". After a couple hours of trying to clean it, the thing only got worse. The "Q'","A", and "Z" buttons stopped working. All the others were coming out with another letter, some I had to jab hard to just pushed. Also, the chip in the keyboard must have been fried at that point, as my tower kept beeping. Tssss. Luckily I have a keyboard from an old PC. But, I've still got to buy a new one White keyboard...primarily black PC, doesn't look as good =P

You should have used your vacuum to clean your keyboard. That is what you are supposed to do in that case.

Did I ever tell you guys about the webserfer keyboard I made . . . I got a bunch of keys from a ton of old keyboards and put em all on one. Instead of
[Insert] [Home] [Page Up] I had [O] [M] [G]
Below that was WTF, and above it was LOL. The first section of F keys was f**k, Then the second section was [K].
I put the numpad up down left and right as the regular up down left right, put my Ctrl keys where the \ and tab keys were, the alt keys were both moved to the left side and the tab and \ keys were on the right. Switched + and Enter on the numpad, and the rest was completely random. I got the inspiration from P-P-P-Powerbook!!! and it was pretty d**ned fun doing it. My parents made me throw all the stuff out along with all of our old computers and monitors, and my Frankenstein CS Server (Turned it on with a screwdriver . . . Logic circuits rule) which needed a new mobo cause that one was fried, and I didn't and still don't have any cash for it- My brother says that his current computer will become our server when he builds his new one.

My situation is kinda odd. I've got this big ass Pentium 4 with a GForce TI, 5.1 system and 1 gb ram all in black with a kick ass mouse and the oldest crappy keyboard ever from 1998. d**n, gotta get a new one :S
