Iridium laptop - GoFuckYourself.com

benthompson · 02-13-2003, 07:59 PM

HI guys,
I have got an iridium star 500 laptop and I accidentally poured some orange juice in. The keyboard is not working anymore and
I definitelly need a new keyboard for that.

I am looking for the producer company of the brand. Is there anybody who knows who produce iridium laptops ? (it is definitelly not iridium.com)

I searched everwhere in the web but I couldn't find any information about the producer.

thank you
Ben

i think iridium is out of business, aren't they? you might be able to find a replacement keyboard shelved somewhere, but your probably better advised to just buy a more modern laptop..!

Equinox, you are simply great mate..

thank you very much for the URL.

chupacabra, iridiums are not out of busines.. They still produce them with the speed of light. My iridium is P4, 512 MB RAM and 40 GB HDD with a DVD drive..

Asuna, you are the rudest webmaster of the web mate.. come on, choose a finger before bothering the others..

you're welcum. Now please paypal me for my services.

benthompson · 02-13-2003, 08:12 PM

ok, how much do you charge per second?

02-13-2003, 08:13 PM

more than you can afford.

Send me your laptop instead, the one with the new keyboard.

benthompson · 02-13-2003, 08:16 PM

Just do me a favor and use google the next time, before you decide to use up the board's precious db resources

benthompson · 02-13-2003, 08:30 PM

I searched all search engines. I couldn't find anything at all.. I searched for iridium but I think I had to search for starbook..

benthompson · 02-13-2003, 08:35 PM

d'oh! i was thinking of the 'iridium network' i guess, the sat-phone deal that went under... good luck w/ your super-modern laptop in that case..!

Most laptop keyboards come off the main case pretty easily. Take it off, remove the keys (they do come off....just be careful not to break them) and clean off the keyboard membrane. Chances are you can just clean off all the OJ with some alcohol or something and it'll work again. I've done it many times.

benthompson · 02-13-2003, 08:45 PM

oh ok..

I will try that..

thank you very much.
