Laptop Regrets

When I bought my laptop last year I was really excited when I found one that came in my perfect color. I am an addict to the computer but in order to actually want to work on it, I needed some incentive. LOL So what's the regret? The quality of the minor things on my Sony. The one thing that is irritating the heck out of me is the color coming off of my keypad. I'm tellin you, my letters are disappearing! What kind of computer is this?! My "e" is turning into an "f", my "t" is about to just be a line, and there are nicks all over a bunch of other keys. Sooner or later they are just going to be plain white (if I don't stick stickers all over them). I wish the warrenty would cover this as a "functional" problem since I do stare at my keys while I type but of course it's not and I'm stuck.

I've already started eying the ads for laptop deals out of disgust for this thing. I'm sure I could find something good and it helps to read the reviews on buy.com and other sites. The prices are pretty reasonable right now so that's not a problem. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE my Vaio...it's fast, stores a lot, the keys themselves are fantastically easy to use, and as a whole it functions perfectly. It's just this stupid thing I have with the paint. I will almost bet that mine is a fluke too...my step-dad has no problems at all with his laptop. Go figure, ugh!
