Good for Blue, he must be a real gem.

I have had the same run with my toshiba. 3 years of no breakdowns , and its been through some of the roughest roads in OZ. Will get another perhaps next year, same brand. Bill

BUT that's over a month early.

 Yeah Womby, it's good isn't it cause when the proper time gets here I'll get another pressie..............

Believe me, Ma will not let go of Blue. He's a high quality human being, as Ma is.
I even tried to kidnap him while her guard was down but she's just too good.
They are proof that there is someone out there for everyone, and they've both met their "someone".
Lucky girl. That man is spoiling you, and we can't have that.
Good for you - both of you.

Happy Early Birthday Ma.  You can't go wrong with a Toshiba.

Cheers,

Sheba.

You shouldn't need sticky letters or keys. They don't move. They're still the same as they were the day you bought it.

sounds like the grader I drive it's got so many levers , one day sombody asked me how to move the blade sideways ? I said I d'ont know I play it like a piano , d'ont have to look!

Ma, you are one very lucky girl....
You have Blue....and a Toshiba laptop....

p.s. My laptop's a Toshiba too.

Cheers.

Thank you wombat, you are a marvel.
Now maybe you can fix Brians problem re uploading photos. I've tried, we just can't get to the bottom of the problem.

 Brian has fixed his problem, looks like it's a telstra prepaid problem, stalling on uploading.

 HW, another option for you is to plug in a USB keyboard and just use that instead of your lappy keyboard.

My old clunker desktop is a put together model. The 'engine' is a great huge thing that takes up almost half the desk, the monitor came from the dump shop and doesn't have a leg, so is propped up against my sewing machine, but I do have almost new keybaord and mouse! I all works, just veeeerrryyy sslllooowwwlyyy!

Any wonder I love my laptop!

Mines Toshiba with wifi as well. fantastic piece of equipment.
Only problem I have I've used it so much some of the letters have worn off. Does anyone know if you can get replacement keys?

 Yes you can and it's very easy to change it, have a look here

http://www.ehow.com/how_4843847_replace-keyboard-keys-toshiba-laptop.html

and do not get a tech to do it, they will charge you $80-90 for a 10 min job, I'm sure your s.i.l. would be able to do it.

Usually two very thin wires to unplug then plugin the new wires and snap the new keyboard back in place

get your keyboard here http://www.google.com.au/search?q=where+can+I+get+a+Toshiba+keyboard&hl=en&client=firefox-a&hs=8wd&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&prmd=imvns&source=univ&tbm=shop&tbo=u&sa=X&ei=fveGTrCjAY-ziQeQqMSbDw&ved=0CEUQrQQ

 You could look at a separate usb keyboard - not too expensive at Officeworks. I don't take my keyboard away just the mouse - also usb and small also from Officeworks
