Now the buttons 3 and 4 above the keyboard is broken. Totally sucks! I have the Microsoft Natural Elite keyboard.

69.99 at Comp USA.

Good lord. Don't ever leave soda's near or on your desktop.

I'm new here, TA TA!

Buy another keyboard, cheapest you can find.
Open up the expensive one.
Clean mylar sheet sandwich with windex.
They are crimped together, dont pull apart
replace all rubber &quot;springback cups&quot; with new ones.
the fragile rubber cups degrade from soda acid after a while.

Did that, been there and got a new keyboard...it wasn't worth the effort or clean-up. After coffee, I'm trying to work off my agressions after Dr. Pepper and Coke.
