    So my E key just broke off from my keyboard. I am still within the warranty. Keeping in mind that i have my warranty through Best Buy. Would this be covered under warranty? Thanks

    Your best buy Asus won't have the accidental warranty protection (most likely), but you can set up a cross ship with Asus. Basically, they send you a keyboard replacement first and you ship the broken one back to them.

    I had my C key break off and they sent out a new keyboard that I replaced myself. It wasn't a big deal at all. I have the regular Asus warranty, though . . .
