the price, take a look at this study by Arizona University http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/3505414.stm And if you really want to be put off drinking that coffee or eating your Boscotti over your keyboard...this report may just do that!! http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/921923.stm MAURH "Nonny" wrote in message ...

I rounded up to $5. You forgot the $6.95 S&H. That makes it a $10.90 keyboard. I'll round it up to $11.00 Try again. Nope, I didn't forget it. The OP suggested buying a "Dishwasher Safe" keyboard from an online source. Undoubtedly that has S&H costs too. The point of my reply to him was that one could buy several ordinary keyboards for the same price as his special one, and that, in my view, it didn't make economic sense to buy the special one. Feel free to disagree, and to buy whatever keyboards you want. I won't argue with you about it. -- Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP - Windows Desktop Experience Please Reply to the Newsgroup

Sorry Don, my recipe spells it 'Boscotti'...but I'm an alien from across the
pond with not a trace of Italian in my blood, so what do I know?? You can come out of the confessional now!

Actually both spellings are correct; it is more ethnically correct to use
the Italian spelling, "Biscotti". I guess it's somewhat like the US versus British spelling of some words, i.e., colour & color, theater & theatre. -- Don Vancouver, USA "MAURH" ??? wrote in message ...
