Thank you all very much for your fast responses!  (I'm typing on my
Wife's laptop now - much faster!)

Unfortunately the above parameters haven't alleviated the issue.  It
seems to be slightly better, but every third keystroke is lost still!

The keyboard in question:  Labtec Wireless Desktop Edge   (PS/2)
It types perfectly in Grub, so I can't see that it's a problem with the 
physical keyboard.  That being said... I have put in fresh batteries and 
re-connected it to see if that would make any difference.
No mention of Linux on the Labtec website that I could see....

I have tried many other 'keyboard models' (even those from other
makers), but that only makes it less worse or more worse...

I'm not sure that the same problem occurred when I was checking out the
Live CD for the first time.  I played with it on three occasions before
installing it, but it only did this on the last two live sessions and
the installed session.

It's such a pity, because I am really impressed with Ubuntu, and would
like to press on with it!    :-\

Any other ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Evan
