MacBook Pro - Nit-picking

So this is really a nit-pick. I just noticed that when I have my macbook pro cloased, the left side doesn't close all the way -- there's a gap of about a quarter inch there. Does anyone else have this gap? I know it's just an appearance thing, but sometimes it's the little things that drive you crazy.

Any suggestions?

If the right side closes completely but the left hand has 1/4 inch, it sounds like some pretty seriously warping of the case. Make sure the battery compartment isn't swollen (as has been reported for a few MBPs) and, if there's an apple store local, get them to take a peep.

Agreed with cazabam, that does not sound right. Take it to Apple and have them look at it.

*sigh* I'm leaving on vacation today, but I'll take it to the apple store when I get back, I guess.

Can you take some pics of it? I would like to compare it to mine.
