I can't find a decent picture of the laptop at the moment though :)
Wow, is that the most un-photographed computer on the entire internet? Only picture I found was on eBay:
It's even worse than that: In the "User's Manual" on the CD that comes with the machine, not only do the diagrams of the keyboard not show the markings -- the manual itself is not for the same model! (As I confirmed when comparing its diagram of the internals with what I found when I opened it up)!
However, the photo of a keyboard whose URL you give below is almost certainly correct: the layout is identical to what is left of my own keyboard, and the markings on the keys are exactly the same. So I'll take that as definitive. Many thanks! Good digging, that!
Ted.
PS Niggles like this apart, it's actually a pretty decent machine, and was a bargain at just under £300 at a Currys sale a year ago (1.73GHz Intel Core Duo, 1GB RAM, 160GB HDD, plus the usual tentacles)

and even that I'm not completely sure is that right one. eBay item number 310076702352. (Can you make decent URLs to eBay items? Dunno. You can Google eBay item numbers, though.)
