Sure. They don't work. And Mr. Rowe hasn't answered my mail since I got the parcel. So I don't know if it's my one laptop or is it a general issue. I incline to say it's a broken one as there is no mention in any review I could find about this issue. Surely somebody might have noticed. Or the stuck pixels. Or the chipped box.
