    I have had my laptop for 2 months now, and realized that the front/right rubber foot on the bottom has fell off. I cant find the little thing anywhere. Is there a place I can buy them so I can glue it back on. Needless to say this is not the first issue I have had with the build quality. Hopefully its an easy replacement.

    Maybe Tuesday after the holiday I can get a rep from Asus.

    Can't you just go to the hardware store (Lowe's, Home Depot, or even Walmart) and buy a pack of matching rubber feet or bumpers in the aisle where they sell felt feet for furniture and wall hangings? It may not be an exact match, but functionally equivalent otherwise (and will only cost you $2.50). If having 1 different rubber foot bothers you, you could swap out all 4.
