KB216 Keyboard
I've just bought a new keyboard for my son off amazon - the very old one he was using finally gave up and died
I bought a new DELL KB216 Keyboard.
It appears you cannot press more than 2 keys together with this new keyboard. My son plays Minecraft a lot where 3 simultaneous key presses are often required. e.g. W+R+Space bar.
Can anybody confirm if this keyboard is limited to just 2 simultaneous key presses? If so, it is as much use as a chocolate teapot! The keyboard I replaced was 10 years+ old. Are Dell currently making keyboards that are inferior to much older, equally cheap keyboards? If so, all I can say is very disappointing Dell!

If that was the case, Ctrl+Alt+Del wouldn't work, would it?

Ok, I could have been more specific.... but I I think you got the gist of my question!
Ctrl+Alt+Del works.
BUT other 3 key combinations, NOT USING Ctrl or Shift, do not work with this keyboard, unlike many other keyboards.
If so, as posted previously, this keyboard is as much use a chocolate teapot!
