I've tried epoxy, rubber cement and another high-strength adhesive from Home Depot with no luck. I've finally resorted, strange as it may seem. to using hot glue of all things (previous to this I've been a very anti-hot glue person) which actually seems to work well (got this idea off a list somewhere but can't remember exactly where at this point). It definitely sticks and stays better than any of the other adhesives I've used. I actually just built up the hot glue so that I created a "foot" out of the hot glue itself, not using the original feet at all. I actually like that it holds the laptop a little higher up off the desk than the original feet. The only downside I've found so far (after about three months of use) is that if you drag the machine on a wood table it will leave hot glue residue on the table. Other than that, it's been the best option I've found.
If someone has a better method, I'm all ears!

Okay, I bought my new newertech battery and i'm ready to move on to my next project before I can go on the road with it.
What's a good adhesive to apply to the original feet and keep it there. I'm looking for an adhesive that won't ruin the plastic on my pismo's case.
Thanks. :)
