The keyboard on my main computer has been wearing out. So far it is still functional, but it is showing some serious wear.
That greasy looking part isn't greasy at all, I've actually worn off the top coating which gives it that textured feel. However, I'm not the only one. I haven't bent my trackpoint buttons yet, though.
Kudos to whoever designed the X series, the bottom of the laptop has six screw wells labeled with keyboard icon. You remove these and just pull the keyboard up, no disassembly of the laptop is required. It took about 3 minutes to replace the keyboard.
Thankfully, my R series is the same.

Yeah me too
My A31p has the same issue.. also my "S" button is missing much of the "S" text
