   I would like to see people ask constructive questions without making
off hand comments like "Problem between keyboard and monitor?". This is
not constructive, it is destructive to the community. This is a person
trying to figure out what is going on and trying to test. Very
beneficial to the process of testing.

   Hmm.. So something besides "Problem between keyboard and monitor?"
going on.
