On the list of activities this weekend was finally replacing the keyboard on my ASUS G74SX laptop which, in the several years I’ve had it, had gotten worn to the point of making it difficult when I was doing anything but touch-typing )and with the left shift key finally cracking).
I’ve had the replacement keyboard for over a year, but this model literally requires disassembling almost the entire machine in order to replace the keyboard, including unscrewing dozens of screws, prying open, undoing various ribbon cables, etc., etc. The project as a whole took me a couple of hours (and a couple of disassembly videos on YouTube).
The result, though, is a distinct increase in productivity. And the new one should last me … well, beyond the expected lifespan of the laptop.
Clearly not a gamer, huh?
Heh.
The laptop itself was originally a ASUS gaming laptop, but since my City of Heroes days, it's not gotten much of a workout, keyboard-wise
I do note, though, that, in addition to the normal high-use keys (E, R, T on the top row), the A, S, D trio (along with F and C) wee pretty worn down.
Dave you know you have longer comments than most😆😆😆I hope it works well
I’d say you got your money’s worth from that keyboard.
