Might not be more money. I had a wireless keyboard that had a little dongle on it. When I unplugged the dongle the keyboard was actually USB, so for me fixing it didn't even change what my wife was using to type. It just meant plugging it into a different port. Take another look at yours just in case it's the same way. Good luck, Mark -- [email protected] mailing list
