My belief that a keyboard cannot survive being doused in sugared soft drink has proved to be true. Andrew took the thing apart four or five times, cleaning, tweaking, etc., and it never did work correctly.
So now I have a new keyboard, same brand/style as the other one (curved; I HATE a standard flat keyboard, ugh!). It’s money I wouldn’t have spent if I’d had a choice, but, well, there you go.
No point crying over spilled soft drink.
