My dell shed all 4 little rubber feet over a 12 hour period yesterday. Very weird.

Hi found your photo on Google. My X1 has also lost all it's rubber feet, including the one in the middle. It now rather annoying rocks about when I type on it! I don't suppose you've managed to find somewhere that sells replacements do you?

Thanks,

Ben

What I've done is stick 2 great big rubber feet on the back edge. Not sure where they came from, they're about an inch square, though - the sort of thing you find at the back of that drawer in the house with all the loose screws in it.

Anyway, they're enormous, but they actually improve the balance of the machine a little too - it's tilted forwards more so the weight of the screen doesn't drag it backwards. I found 2 of the original feet, and glued them (with Serious Glue) into the two slots at the front of the dell to provide grip there. Since I did this, it's been nice to use again. Bit odd-looking when carried, though..
