I could do that if I had a USB mouse or keyboard, but I do not  |

That's actually not entirely true. Most laptops have places where you can hook up an external keyboard and/or mouse. Granted, it's a lot more convenient to use the attached one, but that's not always feasible, as in this case. |

Spare keyboards don't really help when you're using a laptop guys
Well regular keyboards, anyway. |

At my house, there are approx.
5 spare keyboards, 4 spare processors (pentium 2) 'bout 10 sticks of ram, and at least 7 disk drives, (none of them are re-writable though )
4 sets of speakers, 3 monitors and 2 gfx cards. Yep, my house is loaded with old computer parts. |

Skydude's right. There's no telling how many old keyboards/monitors/etc. floating around my house, all that still work. Pretty much guarantees that I won't get stuck into one of those "Oh no! Broken computer! I can't work on it for a month until I get a new keyboard/monitor/etc." moments. |

It's always a decent idea to have spare computer equipment around. Usually you won't even need to buy it. For example, if your keyboard breaks, the keyboard from your last computer, which is probably in disuse and obselete, should work just fine. |

I'd just keep enough money around to go buy a new keyboard if mine broke. 
But I have a laptop, so it's not quite that easy. I hope none of them break and can't be shoved back in. |

And what's wrong with that? I have enough money for an extra 3 or four. |

Has anyone seen "German teen yelling at his computer".....? My "left" key had broke on my old keyboard, I WAS PISSED!!!!!!!! Whenever a Cacoedemon or a Baron of Hell tried woopin' my ass from the left, my awesome doomer skills would concede to defeat. >8( Eventually I got a new keyboard, then I accidentally dropped my mouse in a cup of water. Every time I swiped it left, it went left, but every time I swiped it right, it went left.  Talk about ruined doomer skills.
I eventually got a new MOUSE. Then I cleaned the files out of my computer, and delted some of the computer files... [do I need to say it again?] Talk about ruined doomer skills.
Forte, you keep SPARE keyboards? ooookaaaaaay. |

That's why I always keep a few extra keyboards ready if a few buttons on my keyboard just stops working.
My friend Kevin -- who I call Axl most of the time -- broke my last keyboard two weeks ago, so he thought smashing it to get it to work again... would work. Idiot... --;; |

Originally posted by Skydude I was going to do that myself, but I'm not sitting next to a grammar book, and I have no idea how they work. Originally posted by Skydude It was quite amusing, it was back when I used to play runescape, so I was in mid game when it broke, "I'llbebackinasecond,thespacebarjustbroke"  Good times... |

I know you weren't trying to be funny. It was just a golden opportunity for humor that you seem to have...missed.
Spacebar not working? Now THAT is ugly. |

I spilled milk on my keyboard a while back... causing the spacebar to break.. so for about a month I copy/pasted spaces. What's even more annoying though is my sisters shift key is broken... it's awful being on her computer. Yuck. |

Not having a key is just as annoying as having a key on your keyboard you have to press harder than the rest just to get it to work |
| Skydude Posts: 2390/2607 |
It's a lot funnier to say that when you make use of one in your sentence.
There's no reason not to use semicolon; they make good punctuation. |

Originally posted by Skydude Replace the semi-colon, nobody ever uses that. Anyways One time the space bar broke off on a keyboard I had, that totally sucked. Fortunetly(sp?) we have keyboards littering our house, so I just grabbed a different one. |

Actually. It really isn't a big deal. You could simply copy and paste a 'j' from another post. But still... |
