    So, i know this is random and all that, but i i just want to say that i really like the rgb backlit keyboards (ex: msi's steel series keyboards). I think they look really nice, and it give the drag black case some color/ character. I've noticed that on some certain laptops, they can change the color (from the stock white/ blue to red, purple, green, etc). Can they change it to an rgb style led? Sorry, i'm not sure how keyboard backlighting works on a laptop, so i'm not sure if they are all customizable/ changeable. btw, i was thinking about getting the sager np8657-s. Do you think this is possible for the company (maybe i'm interpreting the term "customize laptops" differently). Think it's possible?

    You should just contact them that's the best way to know for sure.

    Okay, i wasn't sure if this was a definitive no, you can't add in a rbg backlit keyboard function to a laptop. Thanks. I'll shoot them an email.
