[P1] a couple observations...

[Michael Adams]

Hi there,

My iBook does this too... also an 800 iceBook. Quite annoying since it 
means that the central bit of the bezel along to top rubs against the 
mouse button and has actually left scratches / blemishes on both. Also 
the sides of the keys have left small rub marks along the left and right 
sides of the screen bezel.

So you're not the only one... but is this supposed to happen?
