Probably nothing to do with it, but I used to get probs with my Escape key
because if I'd unscrewed the 1200 and re-assembled it, the Escape key,
being right in the corner used to get trapped in the down position. It
made reading text files in Opus a real challenge until I worked out what
the problem was.  :)

                  All the best,
