I had my laptop not even a month and the keys started to disappear on my g4ibook. Being under warranty I took the laptop in and had 3 keys replaced. My N key was the worst of all k…

I'm on keyboard #2. The first one lasted almost a year before ink started to flake away, and the second one just a few months. The S is completely gone again. Being a touch typist …

i use the iskin, just got it recently. I have a few issues with it that I posted in a thread in the Peripherals forum. But overall it does the job great. Within 3 days I could s…

Just want to say thanks for this helpful thread. I got my second iBook the end of April 2005. Within a week the R E N were going and completely gone in another week I never had…
