Apple Aluminum Keyboard: electric shocks !

by decg - 9/8/09 2:42 PM

Hey everyone,I've got an Al apple Keyboard and since last weekend I've been getting electric shocks from it. I can reassure you all this is not Static, i can feel a constant power current. the Keyboard was linked to the Mac via a Hub but now it's directly linked to the Mac and still the same problem. My Dell laptop has been giving me a few jolts too. The Mac Minis casing is giving off shocks too.

Any ideas ?! something wrong with my earthing maybe ?

Thanks, Decg
