I have a Dec Pro 380....it seems to boot fine except that the keyboard
is dead --no lights and no response from the keys.  

I have tried a known working keyboard of the appropriate model #
(from dec support).

Question--is there a certain controller/interface chip that has been
known to fail in dec pro's that could be easily replaced?  Or am i
really getting my hopes up?  I guess it _is_ doing a good job of keeping
the door open.

Thanks for any info...
