    WEll at first i nearly had a hard attack. But it didnt miss a beat, my Itunes kept running, Hard drive protection came o, and my downloads continued uninteruppted.

    The plastic border around the LCD screen did pop loose, but it popped right back in and there is NO observeable marks!!!

    Im happy with my machines durability so far!! :D
