    No, it's zone lighting control, there is no way to control it as per key lighting. Cross your fingers for future models to have this.

    Thanks for your confimination . I was doubt about that. Anyway , I've been crossing my finger since Alienware M17x gen 2012 and starting to doubt that they will never do that for future models.

    I don't know about never...other systems are starting to get it so I think eventually you will see it so they don't get left behind. or at least that's my guess. Per key lighting is just kind of taking off, even on desktop keyboards unless you go high end so I think you will start seeing it trickle down soon enough.

    Thanks alot for keeping the hope for me . Well , until then , I really don't think my budget will allow me to get another version of Alienware, but I still want to see if they actually make my dream come true.
