MB SR Casing problem?

[Chillijam]

Hi there,

I've just noticed on my new MB 2.0 SR the case on the left hand side seems to be loose. If I press the outer casing inwards (left-hand side, between the security lock hole and the edge of the notebook closest to me) the side seems to go in, underneath the top surface (palm-rest). I'm sure that shouldn't be happening... Is anyone else able to confirm whether their MacBook is the same, or should I take the 30 mile drive to my nearest store for the genius to look at?

TIA
Marc.

Just got my SR MB as well. Upgraded from a core duo macbook. Both of these macbooks have similar play on that side. The core duo was worse, and I do feel as though the SR's are better built. I saw a thread on this forum about a year ago addressing this, and there was a picture of a macbook with the topcase off, and you were able to see that the two screws on that side were not attached to anything. They were just there for show.

Nice!

Thanks for the reassurance
