Good luck getting the replacement keys -- ALPS makes them especially for Apple, and you can only get them through an Apple dealer. (I know, I used to be a service technition, and was able to purchase them from my boss.) Unfortunately, unless you happen to have a friend who runs an apple service department, your chances of getting the keys are slim. (One dealer wanted $15 each!! Another said that they wouldn't be able to fix it and asked for $130 for a new keyboard.) See the January, 1989 issue of MacTutor for one way to handle the problem. ...Richard Developer University Course Development and Delivery AppleLink: RDCLARK
