<Ridge> but then my laptop has http://img364.imageshack.us/img364/7286/0706082001ahs6.jpg
<Ridge> and my old keyboard has http://img297.imageshack.us/img297/4329/0706082002agj4.jpg which i think broke off
<@eXonyte> I must be missing something.
<@eXonyte> they look the same, except that the old one looks kinked
<@eXonyte> and I can't make out anything meaningful of the laptop itself
<Ridge> its a sony vaio n250e

<@eXonyte> so does it just not fit or something?

<Ridge> i think it was from my old keyboard and it broke off since my new keyboard has something under it that looks like that
