    Well i got my laptop for about 3 months and it seems that every now and then
    When i take my laptop out of my carrying bag i start noticing problems with my screen :
    well at first it was a little dead pixel which really annoyed me but i got used to it .

    Then i noticed a little scratch which i didnt pay attention since i guessed those kind of things happen .. : /
    And then once i opened the laptop and noticed that the metal color on the keyboard (near the media bar) has peeled off (like tons of dots where the color as been removed..)
    Today new sight REALLY pissed me , this time it seems like in the exact spots where the metal color peeled i got some strange dots on my screen (they dont seem like scratchs , but they wont go off its almost like they are tiny tiny holes in the Screen since when i move my finger above it i can feel lil holes)

    I'll get pictures of those problems later but i seriously wanna say that this experience with the laptop really bothers me since i now focus on looking at those minor defects which are driving me crazy..
    Any chance i can do something about it if i have warranty?.
