    OK, this may sound silly but I've just received my DV5TSE laptop and love it. Other than the light lettering on the keyboard, the movement of the lid everytime I either pick up or put down the laptop really bothers me and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions/gizmos to reduce how easy the lid moves back. I've looked putting tape in-between the hinge but can't hide it from being seen from the outside.

    Thanks,
    Chris

    Mine does not do this. Maybe you should bring this up with HP support.
