Hello everyone.
For years I have been thinking about getting a Mac, and when they made the unibody model I fell completely in love and have been talking about it so much that my friends told me to shut up or buy one. So finally I saved the money and bought my first Mac last week. But when I got home and opened the box I immediately spotted a small damage on the edge on the metal frame next to the power button. The damage is not very big, but I quickly found myself staring at it constantly with a feeling of disappointment. My new MBP was beautiful and perfectly crafted - except for the small jag - sigh. So after viewing the production video of the precision laser cutting of the unibody I returned it to the store. One of the employees I talked with told me that he had never seen something like that before, so I fear that they suspect that I made the damage myself. And unfortunately they would not swap it right away, so the store are now waiting for Apple to decide what to do about it. Hopefully they decide to exchange it.
So what do you think guys - am I just too sensitive or would you have done the same and returned it? I took some photos (attached) so you can judge for yourself.
