I recently discover the Macbook White Crack problem...

http://gizmodo.com/5204395/apple-privately-admits-white-macbooks-notorious-crack-problem

Heres the thing... my father is comming for USA (I live in Peru) with my new Macbook White Early 09 Model, he's gonna hide the notebook on his package, to avoid taxes, which are incredible in my country. With all these Crack problem insues, I'm afraid that the Macbook could get dammaged. The Macbook would be on a Sleeve (those 60$ Sleeves for 13inch), do you thing the Notebook could get cracked on the flight? Anyone tried that before?

Thanks for the help and sorry for my bad english.
 
He shouldn't have any problems, the crack usually develops over a long period of time.
 
If it cracks, Apple will cover it. There should be an authorized repair place in Peru.

It should be just fine sweetie. Just hope he doesnt get caught. And never a good idea to post publicly intent to defraud/taxes.
