for some reason, the leer "T" on my keyboard is acting up. more than half the time now, when i type hat leter, it does not ranslae to a yped letter.

this is getting to be more than annoying, as i find that i have to go back and check to make sure that when i type a t, that it actually ends up in the word it was supposed o. why couldnt this be happening with a leter like z?[bang]

any houghts?

Pop the 't' key out,.. give the little white pad underneath a good clean with a cotton bud.  [beer]

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Dude, make it type out once, highlight it, then just copy and paste as needed. Problem solved. Sort of.

I had the same problem with my laptop, except it was the letter "s".

You can't pop out the letters, it is one solid piece.  I had to get it replaced.

In the interim, I either plugged in an external keyboard, or copy-pasted from a small text file I kept on my desktop with "S" and "s".

The should be an " ALT " plus 4 numbers that will give you the t. I did a quick google and didn't find it.
Here are some alt key examples.
alt + 0128 = â,¬ = Euro
alt + 0163 = £ = British Pound
alt + 0165 = ¥ = Japanese Yen
alt + 0223 = ß = German double esses
alt + 0252 = ü
alt + 0228 = ä
A conclusion is the place you got tired of thinking

glass half full...forces upon you cleverness involving saying your peace while lacking one specific key.

Ask and you shall recieve.
Hold down the alt key and type 0116 and you get t when you relase the alt key.
Alt + 84 yields T.  Only works on a seperate number key pad, I tried with the 1/!, 2/@,3/#,....... keys, no go.

Had a brain fart, once I googled " ascii keyboard codes " had the answer.

Does this mean you meant your SN to be "Therm"?  :P
