    IMAC G3 Laptop - Keyboard Clips

    Does anyone have any idea where to buy the keyboard clips for an IMAC G3. Not sure if that is the right name or not, but not finding anything on google or Ebay?

    One of the kids managed to prise off the keys earlier with a pen. The keys attach easily but not sure if you can get the clips seperately or whether you have to buy keys?

    Anyone know?

    Can you show a pic of the missing key?

        Yes, I do.

          Got it. They're called keyclip hinges. Plus it was a Macbook Pro(I don't know it's an Apple and she told me the make).

              It's just MF is very much non-technical person, he knows it's a laptop, and that it's an Apple, but he does not know it is iBook, so he calls it iMac since that brand name is more frequently used.



              That's Apple G3 Laptop - iMac G3 was first made in 1998, and discontinued in 2003:

                  I assume it's a euphemism, but I don't want to know what for

                    I've got one of these. If MF can confirm that this is wot he's on about I'll have a look.

                    The keyboard was worn out long ago, but it still works fine with an external one.
