    So with 1 week before I need to finish up a bunch of papers and journals for a portfolio for my clinical training and schooling my Toshiba laptop stops typing the letter "L". Not the biggest problem in the world but a lot of words have the letter "L" in it and my instructors might notice if it's missing.

    I bought a cheap ASUS laptop yesterday so I could stay on track and finish all my work. It's a pretty decent computer for the $ but I'm planning on fixing the keyboard on the Toshiba and selling the ASUS once it's all fixed. I'll post it on here and offer an MNsubaru deal as soon as I can.

    Bestbuy said they would have to send the Toshiba to the manufacturer. It would take 2-4 weeks and be $100-150 range to fix. I have no time to really research shops and compare so if anybody has some recommended places besides Bestbuy please let me know. I'm in the SLP/Hopkins area. Thanks

    Use the numeral 1 as an l. Works better with certain fonts.
