Re: Does your keyboard have issues?
I don't know the meaning of the word squeak but when I type fast on my keyboard, but also correctly hitting the keys when I type I get different reaction times letters in the word + even sometimes skips letters that I'm a 150% positive I hit... so far I've noticed it when I type "just" fast ends up as either 'juts' or sometimes even 'jut' it says 'juts' ignoring my push of that S. I also have this problem with "you" I type in 'you' first and then hit space bar but it ends up "yo u"... anyone else having these problems? it's really annoying for me
the thing with the juts happens all the time like 99% of the times or something. annoying as hell! :[

Re: Does your keyboard have issues?
My spacebar is raised on the right hand side by half a mm at most. Apparently, my Compaq laptop exhibits the same issue, which leads me to believe this "flaw" may be within design tolerances since the keys are inherently plastic, which will allow flex to some extent.
I'm due for a replacement though. My m14x came with a few dings and dents at the back which took off some of the black powder coating, which says alot since bare metal is exposed.
