    I'm upset because the palm rest stickers are both crooked and look like hell. It also looks like the idiot that put them on saw they were crooked and tried to fix it and left a scratch. :mad:

    I thought maybe I could just remove the stickers and have Dell send me new ones that I could put on straight and cover the scratch but I'm afraid it would do more damage trying to remove these. Should I just call Dell and tell them I want to return it?

    Rubbing alcohol will take off any stickers...

    Who wants stickers on their stuff? one of the first things I do is remove them.

    I don't care about the stickers just the scratch that's next to them.

    Whatever, then the machine made some scratches. :confused: Usually machines don't make errors like that.

    I would complain about the scratch, as I would expect a large purchase like this to be flawless on delivery...

    You could always order an nvidia sticker to go over the top of it for the time being until some hardware fails. I would FOR SURE call dell and NOTIFY them of the damage otherwise it could be held to YOU!
