Ruth – Haha! Yes, ‘fummy’ it is! LOL!

Yes, I don’t know about PC keyboards, but you can indeed replace those on a Mac laptop!

I had no idea you could replace keys. If I’d known, I’d have been tempted to ask about it when the computer was in the shop too weeks ago. After having to replace the hard drive, how expensive could keys be?

I think your swapped keys are very funny. (Or is that fummy?)

Baino – Oh, well .. the numbers! No-one touch types the numbers, do they? Only people who work in accounting departments!

DBM – HAHAHAHA! Very, very nicely done, my dear. I’m glad I wasn’t drinking tea when I read that!

Sistertex – Wanna come over? Feel free! LOL!

Dorothy Stahlnecker – I think it’s only some people who wear their keys away. Perhaps we have more acid on our skin than other people? Son No. 1 always suspected my nail varnish.

Jake – And you wonder why we call you Mr Pedantic.

Sandy – I’m going to put the link in my sidebar, I think – but remember, it’s only for Macs!

Mara – Tee hee! Yes, indeed, but it will be FUN! LOL!

Geri – Well spotted! But it was a good idea to Google keyboards! Nice bit of lateral thinking, I’d call that! Just so long as you could do the Googling with a non-functional keyboard.

Ethelmaepotter – Ahahaha. Yes, Son No. 1 has also been around here with his airbrush, blowing gunk out from our laptop keyboards for us. I think it was mostly crumbs and dog hair under mine, with the odd human hair to make life interesting. OH specialised in tobacco shreds and ash.

My problem is not worn keys, but STUFF underneath them. Most notably, cat hair. The stray popcorn hull has also been known to find its’ way under there, and I’m still not sure that a fingernail I bit of isn’t hiding somewhere in there.
Great gift. I thought for a minute, just scannning the photos, that it was Scrabble pieces!

Aha! Spotted!
I did this once too. Flipped all the keys off to clean biscuit crumbs from between them – and couldn’t remember where they were all supposed to go back…AARRGGHH! Had to google up a picture of a keyboard to guide me (silly woman).

Oh, I already feel sorry for OH! I can understand him not wanting to have tar in his hair, but to punish him like this…;)

I would complain indignantly about how my degree was called “Computer Science“, not “Computer Studies”, but… well, [most of] Computer Science isn’t really science either.
