Me either, but going through all the diags, it was the only thing left

And of course it would be the soldered in type, not the socketed one.

Considering the rather hideous weather, this is a bit surprising:

Fingers crossed!!

Yeah... hope the van doesn't get hit by a tree.

It didn't, but I got the most weirdly wrapped parcel just now!

But credit where it's due, it was super wll wrapped and protected in there and works just fine:

But look at the yellowing!!! My original is on the left. Also arrived with a really neat vacuum formed keyboard cover.

So will open up later and see what it all looks like in there.

They keyboard cover is to hide the yellowing.

Very likely, but it is just not quite up to the job!
