That's a good use for the keyboard in the trash can, because it was
dead.  (It was killed by a power surge a week ago during a storm.)  

The keyboard on dewey was migrating between dewey and the gateway,
depending on which machine needed troubleshooting.  We should be able
to tell the BIOS on the gateway to ignore the non-existence of a
keyboard.

You'd have to elaborate before I could tell if it would be too much
trouble.  Or you could do it yourself...the root password is pretty
well known.
