    After searching posts I feel like I've commented the most on this 17R model series... ;)

    I need replacement rubber feet for my 17R (5720) and Dell says they don't sell them and there's no part number for them. That since there's no part number that I can't get replacements under the warranty either. I can't find any online at ebay like I have for past laptops and am just kind of peeved and aggravated about it. I know it's not the end of the world but I'm sick and going to Home Depot or Lowe's to get stuff to try and make my own seems like a big feat right now. I just don't understand how they wouldn't offer replacement feet anymore when them coming off on laptops has been an issue for as long as I can remember across all brands.
