    Hi

    I just got my new sp13 today and I'm really excited. It looks very well built and I'm super happy.... but... when I open or close, or even "shake the screen a little bit" in the middle of the screen there is like a half a centimeter circle that "shakes", similar to how a calculator looks when you touch its screen with your finger. It is like as if you touched a plasma tv with your finger, the picture in that small section sort of "wobbles" for a few seconds. If i leave my screen alone it is compltley fine and unnoticeable. Is this something normal with the thin 900p screen? It seems so thin, maybe moving it touches pieces inside? What do you think? RMA? or keep.

    This is not normal.Thin or not, just moving the lid shouldn't effect the LCD in any way. If you try to use the laptop someplace where there is vibration (such as an airplane) this would be a problem. If you are within the 30 day return, I'd suggest trying again.
