- geminitojanus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I disagree pvera. I've owned my iBook for roughly two years now, and I have to say that I've never found a better keyboard. The keys have a softer response than anything in the PC world, which is better on my fingers and hands, which means I can type and work longer. Also, if you take your keyboard into an Apple store, they will replace it for you (I've had to do it once; I dropped a heavy book on the space bar and broke it literally in half).
They're also very easy to take out and replace, you can take them off to shake or blow the dust out from between the keys, and rub them down with some q-tips and alcohol, and you're good to go (sure, it's not as easy as throwing your keyboard in the dishwasher and having it good to go, but it's still an easy task that doesn't even take a half hour.. but then again why is your LAPTOP keyboard as crufty, you're not eating over your computer are you ;). - pvera, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The iBook keyboard is the one component that makes no sense. The iBook is a very sturdy design, but the keyboard is extremely delicate and literally impossible to clean. The keyboards on the Titanium and Aluminum Powerbooks are not much better. I have owned all three, the iBook keys simply fall off, and the scissor assembly underneath can be hard to prop up to plug the key back in. The keys on both Powerbooks simply wear out, as if the plastic is too delicate to be used for this.
