Hey -- good to hear!  I'll see if I can swipe my girlfriend's iMac 
keyboard (she hasn't turned it on in at least one year -- it's
one of the first rev models).

How's the crashed hard drive?  Any luck?

                                                                            Sean

  Most definitely. Until it's available, the workaround is to
plug a USB keyboard in.

later,

Peter.
