Is this for a Plus style keyboard or an ADB?  I have done much work on the PLus
style and think I can dig up enough key switches for you to effect repairs.  I
haven't had to take apart my ADB board yet - MacUser had an article on taking
them apart.  Give a holler if you'd like to try the key switches.

Any ideas for a good signature?  Or should I save the band width?
