In this case, you can replace the key stems- which will be cheaper then getting a new keyboard. Or, of you do get a new keyboard, keep the old one around, for parts- so that if key stems die in your new one, you can replace them with sill working key stems from the old one. -Rob Knop rknop@tybalt.caltech.edu
