And in the future, don't ever put the computer on a bed, couch, carpet or your lap unless there's a flat hard lap pad under it. That's where the vents are and they must be kept clear of obstructions.

Wow, I was told it was lemonade.....At least it wasn't beer.

I will be ordering the keyboard today.
