    i screwed up big time cuz i spilled some super sweet juice over my xps 15 keyboard... in the process of cleaning up the mess i screwed up even more and broke some of the thin plastic clamps which r underneath the keys :cry: :cry:

    does anyone know about an online shop that already has such keyboards on stock? otherwise some extra plastic clamps would do as well i guess but i cudnt find such spareparts anywhere..

    Lol, horror story. Sorry to hear that though. I just have to ask this question first, do you have Dell's complete care (CC) warranty? If you do, just call them and they'll fix it for you. Even if you don't have CC, it's worth calling Dell and "telling" them what happened ;), you might get lucky since it's a relatively new system. If that doesn't work, I'll just suggest checking eBay first. After Dell themselves, eBay is usually the best bet.

    EDIT: Guess eBay ain't got it (according to Tsunade-sama (lol)). "Tell" Dell about it ;).

    lol screw up big time would be like C4'd your laptop.

    Ebay doesn't have XPS 15 keyboards yet, might want to call up Dell.
