Hi guys, as i said the G key is out. I have a TiPB 400, any ideas of how the key is attached to the keyboard, or just use glue...

let me know, please

I'm not sure how the key attaches, but I'm pretty sure glue would fall under the category "a bad idea."

Can you just use words that don't have G's in them? Or go for the colloquial - i.e, "shootin'", "typin'"?

Haha! That'd be hilarious.

On a similar note, does anyone know how to remove the keys for a PB17 Rev A? My spacebar squeaks like all hell and it's driving me nuts. I'd like to take it off and maybe put a bit of teflon lubrication or something on it. Any ideas?

If it was a "W" you could blame President Clinton's staff.

I thought PowerBook keys just "pop" on and off. Or am I thinking back to the old pre-G3 PowerBook days?

You could also talk like Boris Badinov, saying stuff like "thinkink" and "shootink."
