Mine creaks if I put pressure on it while I close it. But it doesn't creak while opening. I think this started one day when I was cleaning the case with alcohol. Also, it only creaks if I close it slowly. If I do it at regular speed, it doesn't creak.
Are you talking about the superdrive? My macbook does something with its superdrive each time it wakes from sleep (it almost sounds like it is taking a disc in, though only for a moment, which might sound a little bit like a creak)
No, but I cannot brook the sound it makes while streaming video or downloading torrents. I feel like I've been sold down the river...
I had this problem. It was annoying as hell.
Sent it in 3 times and Apple never got it fixed. Ended up giving me a replacement but then I said I'd pay the difference for a MBP... and that's where I am now.

Mine does it too. It has gotten to the point that I don't notice it anymore, but it bothered me at first.

Nice one. And here I thought mine was just brooken as well. I guess there was no need to get my hair all in rivulets...
Mine does, doesn't bother me though, which is weird since usually those kind of things drive me insane.
