Doesn't seem to have a backlit keyboard based on the reviews on Costco.com.

I wonder if they stock at the warehouse to avoid the shipping charges?
This laptop has very good specs for $384.98 after mandatory, flat-rate shipping charge.
Repped!

UPDATE: No backlit keyboard. Boo! It has been months since the reviewers pointing this out were promised they would have Costco fix the error in the specs.

I do not understand why people here act like that complaint is unwarranted. It is important to some of us. Stop your snarky put-downs.

I've been waiting for a deal on Dell so I can use my American Express promotion but this looks like it may be good enough. I wanted 16 gigs of RAM but upgradable is not a bad deal

The specs read very comparably to the recent Lenovo IdeaPad 3 deal. It's a shame about the lack of backlit keyboard because this laptop would tick off most checkboxes for a lot of people.

I'm wondering how's the trackpad on this unit? The IdeaPad 3 trackpad is trash.

What a shame no backlit keyboard. I cannot go back to a non-backlit keyboard now sadly. I would have jumped on this deal.

Does a non lit keyboard at this price point really kill the deal ? Are you working in the dark ?

In for one thanks OP

I recently purchased a Lenovo with a backlit keyboard, and it was not enabled by default. I needed to hit the FN key and space bar to enable. Perhaps this is what might be going on here.

Even in the dark, if you have any experience using a computer you'll know where your home row is and be able to get to work.

Let's be real, this is for people who fumble around on the keyboard.
