[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1279703, member: 56379"] My first question would be (since you spotted this bubble this morning)...was your MacBook left running all night...and possibly left laying on a blanket (or other "squishy" surface) where the MacBook wasn't getting good ventilation? The bubble to me looks like 1 of 2 things: - The battery is bulging due to a defect (but the bubble in the photo doesn't look near the battery area for this to be the problem). - the MacBook overheated (possibly due to what I mentioned above)...and either the gpu (graphics hardware) or cpu overheated, melted the plastic...causing the "bubble". - Nick [/QUOTE]
