Hey guys. Currently on a friend's computer, but I was on Sarafi on my Powerbook when my keyboard just stopped working normally. The "m" key puts down a comma and "apple-a" quits instead of highligting all. They keyboard isn't on numberlock and I have no idea what happened since it was working properly the 5 minutes before it went nuts. Any idea? I'm newly on Tiger, if that helps. thanks.

It sounds like you have switched the input to a different nationality. Is there a flag icon in your menu bar and is it something other than a US (assuming that is your default language for the OS as you are in San Diego) flag there?

If not, click it and select the US flag. Alternatively open System Preferences>International>Input menu and do it from there.
