    Recently I have bought a Dell Precision M2300. I know that the Precision M2300 shares the chassis with the Dell Latitude D630.
    I´m very disappointed with the built quality – LCD backlight leakage, Keyboard flex, etc.
    Today I have found one more problem - I can see the internal parts through the gap between Palmrest and Keyboard. I got in contact with Dell Support and they informed me that the gap is normal for M2300/D630 models. Is this gap normal?
    Thanks.

    Today the dell tech service changed the keyboard and the palmrest (I have a complete care warranty). But there is a gap on it.
