    Hope this is the proper sub-forum to post in, but I have just received a M17x R4. Things are going well with it, except that the period key isn't either connected properly, or the key is faulty.

    Obvisouly it works (.), but it doesn't have the crisp feel that all the other keys have. How do I pop the key off without busting it to see if it is connected right?

    I about died laughing when I saw this!! I got the key popped off. The offender was a nail clipping. Some dude at Dell must have clipped their finger nails over my keyboard...kinda werid

    Well, I thought your period was having its period, if you know what I mean. ;P
