Quick question to determine if I have a manufacturing defect or not: On your T60/61's does the right mouse button (on the lower set) feel the same as the left? I ask because on my right button you can depress the far ends of the button completely without it registering as a click. Only when it is depressed near the center does it register. I appreciate your input.

My T60's TrackPad left and right buttons feel identical.

IIRC there's a little clip hooked to both sides of said button that acts as a load leveler so that it doesn't matter where on the button one presses it. Either the clip got unhooked somehow via a blunt force impact on the palmrest or possibly it wasn't installed during manufacturing.

Well it has been like this from day one so it must have been a manufacturing or shipping thing. The question is, do I go through the hassle of getting them to fix it or is it worth taking a stab at myself?

You can ask for a replacement if you think it's defective.
