Laptop repairs

Yesterday, I’ve sent my laptop (Lenovo 3000 V100) back to the manufacturer for minor repairs. The problem I’ve had with it is, that the left mouse button below the touchpad has become rather insensitive to clicks. Sometimes, when I click on the mouse button, I can hear the physical “click” but the computer doesn’t register it. I felt that it was a little odd for a laptop to have a low durability switch installed for a touchpad button, since it is obvious that it will be used quite often. I was actually quite surprised to see this happen since it has only been a year since I’ve bought the laptop.

If you happen to own or have used a Lenovo 3000 V100, N100 or C100 (maybe even the new 200 series?), you would know what the touchpad looks like – it uses the same one. I would like to hear from you whether or not you have experienced this problem.

Today, I received a call from Lenovo to tell me that they have received my laptop and just waiting on parts to come in. That means next day delivery to the repair centre! Well done Lenovo.
