    hey guys,
    ok so when i've had my m15x now for nearly 2 months(couldn't be happier with it). i originally ordered the alienfx keyboard but it delayed my order 20 days and i was too impatient so i took it off. is it possible to order the keyboard from alienware on its own and anyone know a guide to install it(obviously only if its possible to buy it)
    thanks

    I don't know, you should phone and ask them.

    Then there's always ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/Alienware-Area51-m15x-Laptop-Part-Keyboard-MX3_W0QQitemZ330286613362QQcmdZViewItemQQptZPCA_Mice_Trackballs?hash=item330286613362&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1205|66%3A2|65%3A12|39%3A1|240%3A1318 looks like a trusted seller.

    There are directions on how to remove and reinstall the keyboard on Alienware's website.

    it cost me
    $34.53 +shipping and tax i think...
