I'm using a Lombard Bronze PowerBook, 400 mz with 196 kb of Ram. Intermit tingly, the x, s, w, 2, and Tab keys stop working. Not stuck, just pressing the key gets no response. For awhile, just restarting the Mac fixed the problem. Now, only taking out the keyboard out, flexing it gently and putting it back in fixes the problem. The keys then work for a few minutes and then the problem emerges again.
I've tried blowing out the dust from the keyboard with compressed air as well as cleaning between the keys with no joy. I guess the next step is to pop the keys off and try and clean under the keys. How do I take off the keys? Apple's website only tells how to replace a broken key, not how to take a good one off. Or any other suggestions would be welcome. Thanks. I enjoy this list.
