    Rob Walker: yes
    Rob Walker: im replacing the keyboard
    Haris M I: Thank you for confirming the issue.
    Haris M I: In this case, I suggest you contact a local technician . He will assist you with the issue. as we does not recommend to replace the parts by the end user.

    Okay I just died there :D

    I had to contact eMachine support too few days ago for a friend who wanted to replaced the keyboard as you.. The problem is I were not able to find the keyboard :D I mean new to buy from any place, not even ebay. And the guy over at support said the same to me, take it to a local shop.. They don't even talk Norwegian only Sweedish. I returned the laptop to my friend and said I was sorry but he bought a crappy laptop.. And that is right too, there is 0 quality in those laptops.

    I don't think they want to be responsible if anything goes wrong.
