HI Lissi, 

Yes, I have seen keyboards get dirty or just start to give out after a
number of years. Using a keyboard every day for a few years or more can take
its toll. Disconnecting it from the computer and vacuuming it out and wiping
it down good can sometimes help. As careful as one might be stuff can get
down between the keys.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] OT opinions is the keyboard or keyboarder?

Dear Volunteer Friends,

This question isn't one of my important, urgent ones. I don't need to have
an answer to continue working on a book.

It's to do with my typing. Most of the errors the spellchecker points out to
me before I post an e mail or save a document are words where I've
incorrectly typed a letter twice. Here are some examples.

boook  b-o-o-o-k instead of book

playy  p-l-a-y-y instead of play

sttorm s-t-t-o-r-m instead of storm

starss s-t-a-r-s-s instead of stars

iit. i-i-t instead of it

I used not to make these kinds of errors.

So,  is it me, or my keyboard? Is my typing getting funky or, since this is
the only keyboard I've ever used, can I blame it for getting funky? The keys
definitely rattle more than they used to. The noise is sometimes tiresome. 
Has anyone here ever worn out a keyboard? Have you noticed anything it does
to show it's wearing out?

Really wondering.

Is this question something like, "What came first, the chicken or the egg?"

Always with love,

Lissi
