Title: Test post
Post by: Dan_ on March 03, 2017, 08:14:47 AM
This post is to check if there was a problem entering text in the subject field.  


There was not.  


I am on a Windows 10 laptop with wireless USB mouse.  


You must of course place the cursor in the box before you try to type however.

This could be a problem if someone has spilled coffee in your keyboard, or your mouse has a malfunction...

I know better and still managed to drown my new Logitech K-800...  Was having a coughing fit with the coffee cup in hand and the radiculopathy (http://www.spine-health.com/conditions/neck-pain/what-cervical-radiculopathy) in my neck kicked in so lost control of my left hand. 

I dried it the best I could with hair dryer, and it still would take off repeating a random letter until I cycled it off.  This went on for a couple of weeks, and stopped.  Still works perfectly after a couple of years.

 I got tired of replacing the 15 dollar Wal-Mart keyboards when the letters wore of the keys.  K-800 letters are led back lit, so I am very happy it abides still.

"Test post" thread was merged with "z" thread.  Test post thread was then split with the new topic "where to buy spruce stock"...
