    Anyone having trouble with the corner of the command center cover coming up from the keyboard? Its the corner in the top right beside the command center button. Feels like is supposed to be "stuck" down and if u press it it sticks like a bad sticky note then pops up in 1 min or less. I was gonna try to stick it down better but not sure what is best to use to not damage the keyboard.

    I have noticed the same thing. I concluded that because it is a very thin piece of bendable metal, pressing down in the command keys I'd causing the metal to bend out of shape slightly. Because the keys are cut in straight angles it makes it very easy for the metal to deform. Mine raises the lower right edge. I don't care because im mailing this one back.
