    Yes you can replace keys. Sourcing them is going to be your problem. The manufacturer is the obvious starting place.

    Yes you can but I wouldn't as you're more likely to break the keyboard. How do you mean burnt? Do you mean they've rubbed off? Or do you mean cigarette burns as Stan suggested? Main problem is going to be finding a donor keyboard and that will be nearly impossible.
    Rule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.

    If you get an PC with an infrared wireless mouse and keyboard and that keyboard gets broken would a new infrared wireless keyboard be compatible providing you install the driver CD that may come with it?

    May be worth going to an Independent retailer and treating yourself to a custom-made package rather than PC World or Dixons and getting a pre assembled package (VDU, Wireless Keyboard w/mouse, and Hard-drive).

    I did it (Falcon Computers near to the Sunderland Stadium of Light) and it is a million times better than my old PC. A Packard Bell w/Windows 98' bought from Dixons in 1998.
