[G4] Keyboard or typist?

[John Erdman]

Marsha -
The idea of a "lazy shift key finger" has occurred to me. I don't think 
that's the cause  because it doesn't happen on other keyboards. And 
adjusting the keyboard preferences has no effect on the problem  except 
to increase the typist's annoyance! Nevertheless, the real possibility 
of an unnoticed "lazy finger" is why I lived with this particular 
problem for a couple of years now. I don't recall it being a problem 
when the keyboard was new.

But this extra unwanted spaces between words is definitely new which is 
why I'm suspecting a hardware or software source for the problem.

Thanks for your observations.
John
