I just found a problem with my LC keyboard over the holidays. When I type "67" quickly I get "647". I found this out at 2am when manually dailing phone numbers for some local BBS's (sorry to whomever I woke up). Has anyone else had this problem? Does the "New" extended keyboard have this problem also? BTW: I am running System 6.0.7. =Mike -- = Michael K.

I'm having the same problem with my Mac LC keyboard. typing "67" quickly always causes "647" to be appear. Davie

I just went to our local store to investigate the '67' -> '64' keyboard problem. I tried two Classics and an LC and the same thing happened on all three of them. Plugging in another kind of ADB keyboard caused the problem to vanish, so the problem is certainly related to the keyboard. However, the average purchaser of a Classic isn't going to want to shell out the extra bucks for another keyboard. I was considering buying a Classic, but I just don't know any more. --Mark
