    Hey folks, got a rather inconsequential question but hoping to find a quick answer from a fellow Vostro 1400 owner... Are the power and Media Direct buttons supposed to be backlit (like the media/volume buttons are) when pressed?

    I swore they lit up when pressed when I got the notebook, but they don't now. I read in a different thread that the 1500 buttons don't light up, so I figured it'd be the same for the 1400, but not knowing for sure is gnawing away at me ;P

    TIA.

    No. Only the media buttons on the right lits up.
    This has been asked a couple times before in this forum.
