A Dent in my MBP 2010

[horace528]

Well, today, I hit my laptop bag hard, and got a pretty big dent in my Macbook.
Thought it was no big deal, even though it was great at first, since it was like a battle scar, until I realised that the dent was actually near the audio jack, leading to taking out a plugged earphone nearly impossible.
Think it would be hard to actually live with this, as this isn't any dent. Any way to fix this, or is it time to go to the nearest Apple Store?

I'd say if you frequently use the headphone jack and want to keep using it, you might bring it in for repair.

For me, I never used the audio jack and if you have an iPhone/iPad you can use that to listen to music or what not.

Bummers on it getting damaged though

You can always get a usb sound card. I use this

Well, actually, tried putting in the audio jack a few time in and out, it loosened up enough for usage.
It's uncomfortable a bit, but it's at least manageable. At first, seemed like my earphones were stuck, but did come off. A few tries later, it came off with only a little discomfort.
