    I wish I could post a pic, but with the black screen, it doesn't show the problem.
    The plastic cover of the screen is starting to bend (i.e. warp). On the top of my screen, if I run my finger along the edge, it clearly sticks out. About an inch long, and sticks out a few centimeters. Slowly getting worse. I can press it back in, but it doesn't stay. I wish it snapped or something, but it doesn't. Any idea how to get the plastic to stop bending? This sucks since the laptop is fairly new (a few months old). I am careful with it, so I'm not sure what could cause this.

    I think it would best to take advantage of your *warranty* and have Dell repair/replace ~ and not try any *home remedies* on this.

    As stated your lappy is not even a few months old, and to me..that's still brand new! ; )
