Fecked up me iMac keyboard

    Grrrrr!:mad: Typing this on an old wired one. Bought a packet of Fellowes anti-bacterial wipes in a leading PC chain today. I knew things were going wrong when the solution started oozing out onto the keyboard when I was cleaning it.

    Several keys - including the return key - affected. Jamming on, wrong characters, etc. 'o' key repeating constantly. What's annoying me is that the wife gave me some wipes for it a few weeks ago and they were brilliant. Threw out the packet and couldn't remember the maker.

    I've stashed it above a radiator to dry out, but looks like I'll have to take the hit for a new one (E69 from Apple).:(

    Same happened to me.

    It would just randomly start typing the number "7".

    Lucky :D I had a wireless spare.

    Covered by Apple Care. Explained exactly what happened. Sending out a replacement. Very impressed with the customer care.:)
