Wish I lived closer - I have a couple of keyboards from long-dead computers I've stuck in the closet.

Also it may be possible to resurrect that wet keyboard according to this site:

How the hell did you spill enough water on your keyboard to make it stop working?

...the glass, was far more than half full...

If you think it is shot, you could try to flush it with distilled water. It is usually the mineral contaminants in tap water that cause the short. After flushing, let it dry completely, and/or get compressed air to run through it.

I have resurrected some hardware specific keyboards like that.

Edit to add ~~~> You DO know a new keyboard is only around 20-50 bucks.....
