    Is there anyway I can get this? Are they like a universal keyboard where I can use any cover?

    There are no custom made keyboard covers for the np8130 or any sager for that matter (there may be for dells, HPs and such)

    your only bet would be a universal one that fits your keyboard and palmrest.

    Be warned though, covers might make your computer run a bit hotter :)

    There aren't any yet, but as koer suggested there may be some universals out there that will fit or can be cut-to-fit. The 8130 and 8150 for sure (and other Sagers as well) DO have some cooling through the keyboards. If you plan to get a cover, make sure you keep the vents extra clear on the back. You'd definitely want to make sure that you don't have it overheat because of one! :)

    keyboards are super easy and cheap to replace on laptops. Possibly excepting the backlit ones (I have no idea). I replaced the one on my 4 year old laptop for $10, took 2 minutes. Forget the cover
