[DM-MUG] Smelly Keyboard

[jim lagnese]

Yes, we call it the Stinky Keyboard or BO Keyboard. It's not unusual as I
have smelled dozens already, although some are worse than others. If you
want it replaced, I think it'll be around $50. If you want to see a neat
Apple shop in NYC, try Tekserve. They repair laptops on your lunch hour, if
possible.
