    Panels not flush in iBook

    I just noticed today that on my new G4 12" iBook, if i touch the corners of the main part, at the front (ie. Bettery and hard drive corners) they usually make a tiny squeak and move a little. My mum's 14" doesn't do this? Anyone else got this? it aint a problem, just a little annoying (I can be a perfectionist lol) but just wondering. And it's not just the battery moving, i've taken it out and tried.

    When i push my left hand down firmly on the wrist rest part it goes down a little, kinda bothers me a little but not much, also one part of the keyboard goes down a little in the upper left.

    Im not to worried about it, everything else works flawlessly.

    Now I have to ask.... why are you squeezing the corners?

    I noticed it first when I was typing, and every time my wrist moved, it would squeak, and so I was investigating by squeezing them (not hard enough to damage!).
