Then the card reader didn't work. No problem, I rarely use that feature anyways and I got a USB Multicard Reader/Writer. Then certain keys started not working (and things were progressively getting worse). No problem, I got a USB keyboard/mouse. Then when I was at the airport to go to FL I found the internet switch didn't work. Time to take it to a repair shop. Well, I can still use it for finances until I get it to a shop when I return from Surfside. Then the fan wasn't working. Then I got back from FL and took the computer to a repair shop.... SO I then took my Linux from Scratch computer and turned it into my central computer. This means I'll have to get another computer for Linux from Scratch and start all over with LFS. I told the lady at the repair shop about the fan, the dropping keys, and the internet switch (forgot about the reader). She got back to me yesterday and said that the fan was working just fine and that the keyboard needed to be replaced. I inquired about the internet switch and she said it was a part of the keyboard. I'm now thinking that the card reader is a part of the keyboard too but I don't know.
