Hmmm.... Hope you don't have them send it back to you.
I need to get my keyboard replaced soon by EasyServe, which will be EasyServe
#4 (total, # 3 for this machine). Because I have a defective keyboard with a broken
trackpoint, the hinges are again wearing out. I can already see a crack developing,
so this will be important to fix. So long as I can get my hands on a backup machine.
