.................. :shock:

I wouldda thought I'd get more of a response than just this with regards to my offensive statements. :p

Those lit up snails are pretty cool! The only snails in my garden have tiny shells. None of those big buddies. But the slugs, those guys can get huge. Not as huge as giant slug species, but still, rather large.

And regarding popping off keys on a keyboard: I would do this all the time with cleaning my keyboards. I did it on my corded iMac keyboard a while back and realized that was a bad idea since removing the keys broke the tiny plastic tabs that held them in place. I was still under my Apple Care at the time, but was told that it doesn't cover peripherals. Boo on me. I liked that keyboard, but trying to use it now with keys that aren't in place is very difficult. Probably could spend an arm and a leg to buy new individual keys, but not gunna happen. I'd worry about using glue and them getting stuck/not working. Never did it on a laptop/netbook before though.

Basically, I didn't mind mentioning it...with caveats...because, well, he's talking about having to get another computer because of it. So ...I guess I should just let him have the excuse and get another computer because :thumbs:. However, he should have the option to try.

At least the "getting another anyway" is a factor. :glare:

As to offensive previous comments....nah.
