    Hey guys, I just got my new m11x r2 and I love it, its an awesome little machine. I noticed though that the center of the keyboard is slightly indented, like a little dip, compared to the rest. Kind of like what happens to laptop keyboards as they age. Its very minor but I can see it. Should I mention this to dell, is it a normal issue or should I be getting a replacement keyboard? Thanks!

    Congrats on the purchase.

    If you do a search you'll find that lots of people have the same problem. Mine too; kinda sucks, but I've been living with it for a while now, about 5 months.
    In my opinion it mars an otherwise beautiful aesthetic.

    I just posted the same issue on my new one. Plus I have a tiny gap on the top of the screen. I'll see how long I can live with it before I just call. Everything else works great so far though.
