You're going to see that in everything outside of Apple, though. Windows notebook keyboards are all trash.

Macbook keyboards are nothing to brag about too though

There are plenty of sturdy metal windows laptops.

I should just get a MacBook pro.

I'm more interested in the Asus line of refreshments on the right. When is the drop date on these?

Doesn't work.

Make sure it's the active power plan and you change it for both plugged in and battery.
