Also, the screen keeps flickering out.

I should probably start thinking about getting a new computer.

Maybe you accidentally switched to a Dvorak keyboard style.

How old is it?

If you bought it less than a year ago, it's still under warranty and they have to fix it at any Apple store.

Maybe it has a Sony battery in it. You should probably check before it burst into flames while sitting in your lap.

Yeah the powerbooks did get Sony batteries for a while.

Mine did, but I took it back and they replaced it for free.

A smell like burning penis is emanating from my Powerbook

Is it on your lap? Because that would explain it.

These things do roast "nuts" when on a lap.

And people wonder why testicular cancer is so common among men... :p
