    The middle | in the E on the front cover of my laptop fell off today. Surprisingly, I found it stuck on the inside of my laptop slip... *sigh* So now it says, DULL on the front lid -__-

    And it's also most likely photoshop as the Dell logo in the middle of the 1330 is all one piece.

    Jeez. You'd think these things were made in China or something. Probably using lead paint too! :)

    Ya, its pretty sad...

    The laptop slip that I bought FROM DELL, took it off. I wasn't picking at it or anything. I just noticed that a part of it was missing today, and voila it was stuck on the side of my laptop slip.

    All the logo is is a verrrrrryy thin piece of metal - that has been like glued to the laptop... so I'm not entirely surprised that it came off.

    It was broken off by someone or something. Like maybe it got caught on the inside of your laptop bag? That piece looks pretty solid on my M1330. The M1330 build isn't good, but it's not as bad as implied by something like this.

    Umm... it's plastic. It was either broken or ripped off, no big difference there
