I was at LAX a few days ago. Waiting on my flight i decided to get my lappy out and play a game or 2. When i got lappy out of my bag, i noticed something was wrong with the spec case. Then i looked closer and seen that it wasnt the spec case, but my MBP it self. the thin little strip above the dvd drive was bent out. Almost looks like some one jammed a screwdriver in the drive and tried to pry the case open. There is also a small dent on the top lid, not really noticeable but just enuf to where it bugs me. I am still unclear as to what happend to it. But apparently something hit it on the shuttle between my house and the airport. I will try to get some pics posted soon.
I have talked to the guys @the apple store and they are telling me that its gona cost me $1100 to have the skin replaced. $1100 ***! This MBP is only 2mo old, and i paid $2500 for it. I've seen a few places online that i can order the pieces. but I was told that if i fix it myself it'll void the warranty.
Any advice?
should i fix it myself and void the warranty?
should i just sell it and buy a new one?
Heres a link to flickr with the photos
