    Today I've seen a M15x (older version) with a portuguese keyboard.
    it was a non backlit keyboard and the owner told me that he bought the keyboard from DELL.
    I really would love to buy one for my M15x (new version). Does anyone known where/how can I buy one?
    is it possible to do the same for the M17x?

    Dell people in Portugal don't even known what a XPS or a M17x is and they never heard of Alienware.

    lol, that's bad. The number I always call for spare parts is 1.800.999.3355. Don't know if it's worth calling just to see if one exists.

    I would think not since it's a completely different design.
