t42 screen flexing?

#1 Post by tensai_jin » Sat Mar 19, 2005 12:28 am

Hi everyone...just got a t42...nice machine! But i noticed this gap between the 2 metal hinges...i.e just above the battery, it's not exactly flushed and i can peep in and see the insides...

just wondering whether it's supposed to be like that...tried pressing the top part down and it actually moves! scary... :shock:

So is it something of concern or just a paranoid new thinkpad owner here? :oops:

My brand-new T42 (a couple days old) looks the same. I don't think it's cause for concern.
