    Can't see no crease or dent or whatever on mine. The thing is as sleek as can be.

    i think what they meant by it is that it wasnt cause by you or them but it was a dent that happened when it was being manufactured... it might have skip the QC process... sometimes that happens.

    Quite possibly there is an internal hinge support along that there than impresses a slight crease on the external plastic shell of the lid.

    If its only something you see under just the right light I wouldn't get too upset, it'll be likely visitble on all A1s, its just some people look harder for these things than others...

    Well there's certainly no crease on mine. I can't even feel it with my finger, the surface is absolutely sleek.

    Mine has !

    a long crease in the middle, but not able to feel. maybe underneath the skin surface.
    not deep, but visible when reflected to light!

    I thought i was so unlucky, and stupid not to check carefully first!

    I saw something like that a few days ago but I'm not able to see it again, so I think every A1 has it but not everyone can see it (depends on the light)

    You're right! Now i can see it on mine too. It's impossible to spot if you don't look extremely carefully so i don't think it matters to me, it's just bad that I saw it once so that I now know it's there. :shock:

    I have looked with a magnifying glas under extreme bright light condition (150w lamp) and found zero (0) dents, whatever.

    Maybe if those who see one could provide a picture of it, I could check on my unit.

    I posted a picture last night and asked if the OP could point out the "dent" on the picture. No reply so far so I guess this is pure BS because my unit has no dents and no unit in my local computer store has it either.
