Thanks Sam,
I'll check the video and then bite the bullet. I remember removing all
the keys from my iMac keyboard a couple of years ago and having a few
sweaty moments replacing the spacebar.

Hi Martin
It's quite easy to pop the keys off and check underneath, if you
watch a video on YouTube you'll see. Essentially you insert a small
flat blade screwdriver under the side edge of the key but between
the key and the scissor hinge. Twist the screwdriver to pop the top
edge off the hinge first, then
Getting them back on is quite simple too, just slide the bottom
edge downwards onto the 'teeth' of the scissor hinge then push the
top edge down to clip back in.
Regards
As

My trusty 15" PowerBook G4 has developed a fault with one of its
keys. The "T" key as it happens. It appears sticky and only works
if I carefully press it. I assume some gunk has got underneath it.
I have read on the internet that it is possible to remove the key
to clean underneath it. However I have also read that is is very
easy to break it.
Anyone have any advice or experience of such things. I did read
how to remove the keyboard on iFixit but that was just terrifying.
