Given this new information, that would be my top suspicion. My
laptop keyboard has a column that sometimes double-strike or skip
(makes typing passwords a real joy; enough that I got a USB keyboard
to lessen the annoyance), and my netbook has tighter spacing and an
odd arrangement that frequently causes me to hit the wrong key until
my fingers have adapted to that particular keyboard. So with that in
mind, your attempts to type a "w" or "q" on your new key-board's
spacing might cause you to bump "2" to get the effect you're seeing.
Other possibilities might be a short in the keyboard or some sort of
gunk that's causing a neighboring key to trigger.
So my next tests would be:
- if you can take notice of whether you recently typed a "w" or "q"
preceding the "s", there might be some neighbor bumping. Using
"set showcmd" in your vimrc would show you if you have a pending
"2" as your count.
- try using/borrowing/buying an alternate keyboard to see if the
issue persists. If it doesn't, it's likely a hardware issue
