Just today when I received my replacement of my MBP, I opened it and I looked at the keyboard, there was one thing which shocked me!

Why has the 'ENTER/RETURN' button squished to the side??
It's now vertical rather than horizontal? What's going on???

Is this a new keyboard layout? or....something else??

Please help!

interesting.....got a pic of it? Is tha tht eonly thing that is different? If so, presuming you got this replacement from a legit source, this minor detail shouldn't be an issue. If you have a big problem with it, call who ever replaced it for you and tell them you want one exactly like your original.

The vertical return key is part of the European keyboard layouts.
