I think it's time for a new keyboard or something for this computer. It

I've tried turning it upside down and vacuuming the keys (which seems to
help) but, unless I really take my time and punch every key with
authority, it seems to ignore half the inputs.

Stop using it as a crumb catcher.



That's probably it. I've been doing some minor construction in the general
area that the computer sits in and I haven't always taken precautions to
cover it or even close the display (it's a laptop). It probably is loaded
with sawdust and drywall dust.

Hey! We're talking nineteen bucks! Go get a new one. Hell, buy two or three
so you don't have to waste gas next time!

I'm a proud owner of this one, which costs a little more, but works well.
