gs keyboard went south

[j0p7771@TAMUTS.TAMU.EDU (Jason Perez)]

  well after almost 6 years my original gs keyboard crapped out on
me.  fortunately i've been reading about this phenonemon for several
years so i was pretty sure it was the ADB connector.  i opened up
the keyboard and sure enough it was loose.  the ground pin that goes
through the board just barely makes it through, or it was longer and
has since broke off, casuing the bad connection.  anyway i resoldered
that connection, but one of the other pins had also come loose, and
taken part of the trace with it.  i had to run a jumper wire from
the pin to where the trace went.  kinda kludgy but it works, hopefully
for another 6 years.
