I had a couple of keys on my laptop keyboard that had come off, so I bought a replacement keyboard and tried to install it myself. I then found out that the keyboard is riveted to the palm rest, and it's a big hassle to remove them and then try to put it back together, so it's best to buy the keyboard/palm rest assembly. I realized this is probably beyond my ability level, so I called QCP. I was told that no, that's not how it works, and I can just bring in the keyboard and it'll be repaired. After a few hours, I got a call saying that the keyboard/palm rest needs to be ordered together, just like I originally mentioned. Ok - fine. So QCP ordered the part, and it came in - in the wrong color - a weird purple color with black keys on my gray laptop. I ok'ed it, because I just need my laptop to function, so I'll tolerate it looking like a ghetto green sedan with a white door. Hours after dropping it off a second time, I get a call - it's done...but oh, by the way, the old keyboard was backlit, and this one isn't...and it'll cost you 150% of the original agreed upon cost. I told him I really wanted it to be backlit, and he replied that I should just try it and see if it works. Well, yeah, it works, but it's not backlit, which was one of the main reasons I selected THIS laptop. So now I've paid 150% of the price, got a ghetto looking laptop, and to top it off, the touchpad doesn't work properly any more, and there is a 1-2mm gap in the front of my laptop where the bottom and top meet. Awesome. I just paid $160 to make it worse than it was to begin with. read more
