    So I use my laptop MUCH more often than my desktop (which is a lot).

    But the keyboard is a little icky and has some oil stands from my hands (although I clean it everyday with isopropyl alcohol and wash my hands several times when I use it).

    But naturally it's just gotten to a very...worn state.

    Is there somewhere I can order a new keyboard or maybe should I call Lenovo about it?

    Thanks in advance!

    I have heard keyboards are relatively cheap even from Lenovo.

    Installation is simple, 4 screws on the bottm, slight push, unhook the cable, and then reverse the order and there you go. A new keyboard! :eek:

    You can always buy a keyboard cover. A fellow member recently found a nice one:
