MBP Case Problem

This happens on my powerbook as well. I've read of quite a few instances here where the same thing occurs. I just deal with it. It's like a 1-2mm difference.

 

It just happens. My Powerbook did it also. The only real problem I have is that the screen does not tilt back nearly as far as my powerbook did. So when it sits on my lap I am not looking straight at the screen, and the colours and brightness are off.

 

yeah this happens on my powerbook, its nothing to worry about though, maybe its because of the case being made of metal and expangding when the 'puter gets hot

 

The exact thing happened to me when I first received my MBP. The left side was relatively flush, but there was a noticeable gap starting from the center moving to the right. After a closer look, I noticed that the right clasp was not swinging down as the LCD was lowered (as there are magnets that pull the clasps down). I used a toothpick to manually free the clasp and cycled it a couple times. It has been working flawlessly ever since.

I was actually wondering if I was the only one that had seen this prob.

Good luck!

 

My cat sat on my Powerbook and fixed it's uneveness in no time.

 

Same problem driving me insane! I have had the problem since I recieved the MBP.

 

At least in the aluminum PowerBooks/MacBook Pros, there is a "smile" that is designed into it. When closed, the display should be closest at the center, then rising a bit as it goes out to the edges. I don't think the left side being lower matters much, as long as both latches engage.

 

Yea, I bet it really affects it's performance. Notice how Photoshop runs slower? I wouldn't worry too much about it because in a couple of years it probably won't bug you as much. For example, my g4 titanium is about 5 years old and I don't notice scratches anymore. Hell, I don't even look for them!

 

Mine is the same way.... Its driving me crazy... what should i do???
