Default Logitec Keyboard


In Dec '07, I bought a Logitec wireless keyboard and mouse from CPC for
just over 30 quid inc VAT. Fairly unusual these days in that it was PS2
which I need for this machine. It does have a primitive USB setup - but
this only seems to work with either mouse or keyboard - not both - and I
wished to share via a KVM? switch with my PC.
And most of the lettering has worn off the keys. Unfortunately my touch
typing is poor. Older keyboards were invariably engraved but this one only
printed. I've contacted CPC and they say the warranty is only for one
year. Any thoughts on a DIY fix?

It only gets moderate domestic use. I'd have thought in an office it
wouldn't have lasted a year.


I know what you mean. You just can't tell when you buy them, I have
had cheap keyboards that have not shown any legend-fade after a
considerable time, and expensive ones that start fading after a few months.
You begin to wonder if it's beyond the 'wit of man' etc.

Maybe they should use the same technique as Blackpool rock :-)
