Hi all,

Well, I botched things up good this time. I spilled my beer (Bud Ice if anyone wants to know) on my keyboard last night, and now the Esc, Tab, Tilde, and Caps Lock do not work. (I have the keyboard that came with my Dual 2.0 G5 a year ago, Revision B, I think.).

So, what do I do? I thought these keyboards were sealed so this couldn't happen, but I guess I was wrong. Is there something I can spray in there to clean it out? It worked fine right after I spilled it, so I imagine it dried and screwed up those keys. As far as I know, those are the only keys not working.

Thanks,

Tom

Give him an aspirin and buy a new keyboard.
