I've had a Duo 230 since last October, and the keyboard has always been bad in the usual way. From the Duo FAQ (thanks Nick, great FAQ): > Problem: Your space bar or return key or delete key are > unresponsive (you have to hit 'em two or three times to > ... > ( Details on determining revision number (A, B, C, D) of keyboard, > and which ones are bad/medium/good) > ... > Evidently Apple has released a rev D now, I don't know why but it > seems to be the latest. The keyboard part number is: 6611652; it is > listed on page 7.1.78 in the Apple Service Price Pages Book, dated > January, 1994. January. Which is why I waited three more months until taking my Duo in to have the keyboard replaced in the hope of getting a "D" (whatever it is). Not just "hope", I specifically asked for a "D". No chance. Apple dispatched a "C" to the dealer and that's in there now. I guess I'm happy to get this fixed so easily, but this is to let anybody else in Australia who wants a "D" keyboard know that you might have to wait another couple of months yet. ======================== Tom Evans tom@wcc.oz.au Webster Computer Corp P/L, 11 Glenvale Crescent Mulgrave, Melbourne 3170 Victoria, Australia 61-3-560-1100 FAX ...560-0067 A.C.N. 004 818 455
