[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1417769, member: 56379"] Personally...I NEVER place anything on top of my laptop computers...just to be safe. The MacBook Airs are very thin (which is the way Apple has designed them)...and maybe the clearance between the keyboard & display is tighter. Another possibility is...maybe some weight was put on the display while traveling (maybe not a lot)...say in the car. Maybe this caused some contact between the keyboard & display...and the vibrations that are experienced while driving in a car (MANY small & large bumps) caused some rubbing between the keys & display...thus causing the issue/damage. The weight I'm saying may not normally have been enough if the computer was "static" at home...but maybe vibrations in a car while commuting was an extra factor. Also...I don't think that I've heard anyone else mention this issue...ever with a newer MacBook Pro or MacBook Air (the newer MacBook Pro's have a layer of glass covering the display). So it doesn't seem to be a widespread problem. - Nick [/QUOTE]
