Is the MacBook Pro the ONLY laptop with a backlit keyboard?

Asked by arrkerr1024 in PC Laptops, Apple Laptop

Tags: Dell

I love my macbook pro, and my favorite feature is the backlit keyboard.  It is brilliant!  Unfortunately I have to run so many windows programs that I've just been booting to Vista on it all the time now.  It runs Vista OK, but certain things are a little buggy, and the lack of right-click, backspace, and weird key placement for windows are all getting annoying.  I'm thinking about getting a Dell, specifically the 15" XPS with the LED-lit screen - it is as close to a MBP as you can find I think.  However, they keyboard doesn't light up!  So my question is - why?  Does Apple have some patent on it, or are there others out there that do it?Start Free Trial
