    The paint chipping is on the very front edge of my new M11x which is strange because that part never touches anything.

    Has anyone else encountered this?

    So after further inspection it seems it's not paint chipping but some sort of protective plastic peeling off.

    If that is not your fault, ask for a replacement. Period.

    Hmm did you order soft touch? If so that looks like the rubber is peeling off..

    I really hope mine doesn't start doing that..

    I would contact dell about it, Well call alienware dell support doesn't seem too support alienware systems even tho they make them...
