I noticed that one of the keys on my new G74 was not responding as well as the others. I decided to pop the keys off and compare the unresponsive one to the normal functioning ones. Here's what I found: The bottom of the sluggish/unresponsive key had a little circle of plastic glued onto it, to give it more contact with the rubber portion of the key that makes contact with the PCB. On several other keys that I pulled up, the little plastic shim was not present. This leads me to believe that the QC standards for a functioning keyboard were set rather low, and that this was a proposed fix for non functioning keys. I for one am not happy with this, and I wish there was a way to get my money back. Here's some pictures. Don't laugh at my photography, I borrowed my wife's SLR.

Wow, and here I thought I was unlucky with my spacebar key. It's also quite unresponsive on the right side, and sometimes when pressing it down and keeping it down, it can register as being let go.
I'd try these fixes but the last time I lifted off a laptop keyboard, it got very misaligned afterwards. Is this stuff easy?
