Hi Paul,

I've seen some reports lately about problems with wireless keyboards and
interference - like strange effects when taxis go past and, more
particularly, neighbours with similar keyboards taking over control of your
machine. I imagine this could be scary when it is hooked up to large lumps
of flying metal!! One of the reports was in New Scientist a couple of weeks
ago I seem to remember..

Best wishes,
Ian
