On a courtesy call to find out why a PCw/98, self installed, would not boot up, I found ( not as quickly as I should have ) the keyboard was’t plugged in. I noted this politely to him> Response. ” Why do I need a

I never use it”….The system had another induced fault, and between that and the keyboard check, it wouldn’t even do the POST. I tried to explain the input needs of POST, but it went downhill. I could write a book on the cultural implications of this BUT….
