    My keyboard is acting up on me after I upgraded the internal ram. It has a lot of flex and some of the buttons are a little loose. Where can I find a replacement keyboard that would ship fast from a reseller that is trust worthy? Is it possile to get one without the pointstick or track point, whatever it's called.

    Did you install your keyboard properly after removing it? It shouldn't flex or have lose buttons unless you forcefully disassembled it in such a way that you have damaged it.
    If it's under warranty, you *may* get HP to fix it free. Otherwise, I'd suggest getting the part from HP's online parts store. They ship pretty quick if the part is in stock and keyboards usually are.
    You can't get one without a pointstick as none were ever produced as such.
