Take the malfunctioning keyboard and if you can remove a few of the keys that aren't working and check to see nothing is broken underneath. If it is broken then i suggest just taking it outside, putting it in a bucket full of petrol sit back and flick a match and enjoy the warm glow of burning plastic.

Overtime a keyboards keys eventually break especially if your a heavy typer who hits the keys hard or types a lot of the time they are on the PC.

Yes but if it can eat away metal, just imagine what it'd do to a stomach :roll:

No. The recipe was changed to make it more like Pepsi. It didn't sell and they remade the old recipe with fructose instead of sugar. It's a fact.
