You'd think they'd have overcome that issue somehow.

They overcame it years ago. They created PS2 ports so that you could plug a separate keyboard in :)

Thank you - though to me it was obvious. Since the day I plugged a keyboard into a computer I haven't once suffered with fingerprints on the screen.

Well, not quite true. There were some once, after one of my ex-girlfriends decided she needed to poke at the screen to tell me what she was looking at. My screen was more important than her, hence the "ex" bit of girlfriend.  :devil:

I hate people who poke screens... just not necessary. If you need to point at something use the darn cursor.

I agree.  It's a jaw-dropping moment when someone jabs a finger at the screen.   >:(
