Is there any way that I can connect a keyboard from a compaq pc to my laptop, and have it work (needless to say I have spare parts) and need to get something running at home that will get me on line, Or Am I just being stupid

Absolutely you should be able to connect a regular keyboard to your laptop. The hitch may be that the keyboard is PS2 (round connector) and your laptop doesn't have one of those. If the keyboard is USB, then you should be all set.
