Does anyone know what is under that key? Component wise? Anyway, that dude should go see a Genius and get his Mac replaced.

I wonder if the fact that the key is now detached would lead a cynical genius(tm) to believe that the key was melted after it was removed?

It wasn't melted after it was removed lol

It was removed because the key no longer registered a click. So it was taken off so that the button under the key could be used instead... 000 ))))) like that.

Optical drive and/or subwoofer.

Possibly a chemical, not heat.

When I was a kid I sprayed 'Off' (a mosquito repellent) on a calculator and the keys had a similar melted look to them.

"Rubberized keys"?

I've got a couple-of-years old white plastic MacBook and the keys certainly aren't rubber. Have they changed to be like calculator keys now?
