    I confess I didn't know what the frequently discussed "keyboard flex" problem was until I saw this:

    Unbelievable. For my entire life I have never seen such kind of keyboards. No wonder I couldn't understand "the surrounding area sinks". I had thought certain area of the same key cap sank, which sounded incomprehensible. :rolleyes:

    Ha ha now I know you, Toshiba :D

    Sorry, but that’s a d*mn springboard. While my T400 used to have flex, it was nowhere near that bad.

    The first thing I thought of upon seeing that video was the trampoline competition in the summer Olympics. :D
