One of the little rubber feet under my R61 (one of the long ones on the palmrest side) has come loose and fallen off. Luckily, I didn't lose it. What adhesive should I use to re-attach it? TIA.

I have always used super glue.

It's worked well? I'll clean it up and give it a shot. Thank you!

^Another good idea. Thanks! It just so happens I'm finally having a cracked winshield replaced (been like that for six months) on Monday. I still haven't reattached the rubber foot, so I'll have to think about this and decide over the weekend!
