Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
keyboard has gone psycho. Apparently x and 5 are connected now - Typing either gives me "x5". Similarly m7 and 8w and when I press the spacebar it spaces 5 times and I can't type until it's done. Currently copy-and-pasting spaces.
It's a M&icrosoft Natural *Wireless Keyboard (hmm, the M& and *W are new discoveries). Any ideas on something I can do to correct it? Don't have a spare lying around.

Good, 'cause I got nuthin.
Am I correct in my assessment that it's not particularly possible to have my printer on the network without having it attached to my compter at the time?

Yeah, not so much. Just the USB and parallel ports. And I've just got the router.
For Epson printers there's a box you can buy with ethernet on one end and parallel on the other. Works great.
Ah. Cool. Thanks.
Costs more than its worth for me, though. But, good to know

Only British iPods, if it's anything like the rest of the Beeb's plan to offer their content digitally. (The idea being that the TV license should grant a wider range of usage rights than is currently available through the television.)
