[stylist] I Cry over our assignment

[Brad Dunsé]

Eve,

Had you tried to plug in another keyboard? It 
isn't likely the computer itself is the issue. 
Membrane type keyboards, which is 99% of them out 
there these days can have these issues. That and 
CTRL keys or alt keys getting stuck and etc. I 
would find a different keyboard to plug in and 
see if that helps, if that works, you can get 
another keyboard way cheaper than a computer. At 
least to save some frustration until you get a 
new computer . One additional note. USB cords are 
what is known as hot swappable, that is you can 
plug and unplug them with no issue. Those little 
circular PS2 plugs like the older ones? You can't 
just plug them in while your computer is running, 
you risk seriously damaging the computer. You 
might get by with it 8 out of 10 times but the 
9th time might be a trip to the computer store 
:). The computer has to be off to plug those in.

This fall I  sprung for a mechanical keyboard. 
They are more expensive than regular keyboards , 
but they last ten times longer and are the older 
IBM type with mini switches under each key so the sticking key issue is gone.
