about a week and a half ago i got a new mbp but it had some bad pixels so i sent it back and just got my new one last night.

first off i ordered glossy and on the box of my new one it says glossy but i think it looks different compared to the one i got last week but i might just be crazy, is there any way to find out which one i have?

second when the mbp is closed and i press the button to open it the screen kinda flops around and goes up and down a few times, does this happen to anyone else? im not sure if this is even something to worry about.

other than that i am loving my first ever mac and just after a couple of days i cant see myself going back to windows!!
 
Yes, the "flopping" is normal.

Also, if you can see reflections of light in your screen, it's glossy.

thanks for the quick response, i am glad the flopping is normal. i do have a feeling that i did not get the glossy this time, when i first booted it up the screen looked a little bit dull compared to the one i sent back. i changed the display color to 2.2 over the 1.8 preset and it looked somewhat better.
