[QUOTE="pattyjp47, post: 1031486, member: 145748"] I'm now on my second crack. But this time not on the hinge. A small hairline crack that seems to be getting bigger, visible to the left of the sleep light. I'm going to wait for it to get bigger before I take it in. Hopefully they will replace this part too. Is there too much strain on the plastic in the new design of the MacBooks, with all the curves etc...? Just like the white iPhone 3g having cracks in the plastic where the curves were. Is this MacBook going to be like the old one? Cracks no matter what? Since I got it back after the first repair, I bought an extra case to put this in too, a stretchy case that hugs the computer, foam padding in the soft brief case. This is starting to become a mac on a life support. I can't even move it without the hard drive making a huge clicking noise. :( [/QUOTE]
