Yea, my old 667 has marks like these and I'm just waiting for them to 
appear on my new(ish) 800. Not too worried ~ it though, its such a 
minor defect. Tiny scraches and marks etc are only to be expected on a 
well used laptop after a few years. My advice is to just put up with 
them, Its not worth (well not to me anyhow) loosing you laptop for a 
week while apple retouch it.
If you insist on a pristine laptop, you could always trade up every few 
years, you should still get a healthy 50%/60% discount if you trade in 
for a new 17" ti-bitch (works well for girlfriends too :).
