    The disassembly guide is correct, but I don't know, where to buy the keyboard.

    I was able to find it for about 30$ shipped, somewhere.
    RKcomputer sells them for over 60$ shipped.

    Take it out and look at the manufacturer model #, then search that on google.

    One thing I would highly suggest doing is look for the newer keyboard that doesn't have the two \ keys. It was much better to type on.

    Thats the OLD replacement. The ms-1652 shipped with that keyboard (yes, 1652 is older than 1651)

    Anyway I think that one sucks more. The arrow keys are shifted even more to the left and there are still 2 \ keys right next to each other.
