When I went to use the computer there recently the keyboard was completely dead. However, since my dad passed away my mum has not used the computer as much, and so the lights in that room haven’t been on. They keyboard got passed on to my folks and all was well. I had been frustrated by other keyboards which needed battery changes timetabled in accordance with Sod’s Law.
