    Hi all, usually I hang out in the Lenovo forums but here I am with a question about my old Dell Laptop C400. Recently it has started acting weirdly and starts up the Windows Narrator :confused: Anyways, after a checkup, the technician told me that the keyboard needs to be changed. Anyone know of good places where you can buy these spares? I found one on ebay but not sure whether to pull the trigger or not....

    Ebay, ebay, ebay. I've bought at least three keyboards from ebay over the past year and they've all worked fine. My rule of thumb is to make sure to buy a unit with some guarantee against DoA, but other than that, any auction should do.

    Paying through Paypal also helps; they've been really good about the claims I've had to file on other auctions.
