    Is it possible to replace the keyboard and touch pad on the new f12 series with one that doesn't have the number pad? I would like the keyboard and pad centered and not offset. And if it's possible where can I procure the parts?

    Thanks for any suggestions!

    i highly doubt it since it would mean moving the connections even if you managed to find a keyboard like that you wouldnt be able to move the touch pad without changing the casing

    You'd have to replace the entire laptop with a different model.
