iBook trackpad issues resolved (I hope)

My new iBook’s trackpad was still acting up today, so I resorted to reading the instructions.

I was looking through the manual and it showed how to add memory or an Airport card by removing the keyboard. I didn’t need to do it, but hey, why not? Then I found I couldn’t get it back on, and realized the Airport card wasn’t seated properly. It was warping the keyboard when I tried to reinstall it. Since the keyboard hadn’t been warped before, I can only assume that the stress was being felt by the trackpad assembly, and since I’ve seen no further recurrence, I think I’ve fixed it.

    The proper full name of the country is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. England is a nation making up part of the UK. London is the capital of England and of the UK.

    I imagine the situation is rather similar to that of the former USSR, where “Russia” and “Soviet Union” was used interchangeably but also often incorrectly.

    I recommend the book referenced here: the UK seems to be devolving into its constituent parts, with no real center. The cross of St George is seen as a viable alternative to the Union Jack for people who feel English rather than British.
