you should ask the company to ship you another keybard instead. save yourself the time and money to fix the big crack. who knows, they might let you keep the broken one.

Nice work with the fiberglass, but that has to be the most horrible choice of colors in the history of personal computing! Seriously!

Awww, a bit of poison won't kill you ;)
 
And, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, find somewhere else other than photobucket to host your images. It shouldn't take 5 minutes to open any forum thread when you're on 7/2 cable internet!
