Your “n” work for a couple of words at the end.

A new keyboard isn’t too expensive. Good luck!

maybe 40% of the time. But what usually happens when it sticks is that I miss the error, and then have to go back and pound the hell out of the key to insert it.

I ordered a wireless keyboard the other day, and it should be arriving this afternoon.

I'm actually a bit excited about it. I've never had a wireless keyboard (only a wireless mouse), so I'm kind of curious to see how well it will work.

This keyboard had great reviews, and was on sale for $15. It's fabricated in such a way that if you accidentally spill a lot of liquid on the keys, instead of gumming everything up inside the keyboard, it drains out of the bottom of the keyboard. There's some kind of drain holes on the bottom, and it sounds like there is a way that it directs the liquid away from sensitive internal components.

So, that's my keyboard story. I get excited over the simple things in life.

I have an Apple Magic Keyboard that connects to my iPhone, my iPad and my iMac. It’s compact but has full-sized keys. It plugs into a computer or wall wart to charge via a Lightning port and the charge lasts over a week of moderate use.

Good luck and keep liquids away from your hardware!
