Thanks
I just found this picture of someone else's mac but this is what it looks like http://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s...macrackdet.jpg
I had the same thing happen to my (I sold it) MacBook.
Crack in MacBook 4 on Flickr - Photo Sharing!

I got it repaired cos it was still under warranty.

Yes it is a cosmetic issue, but it's a documented fault with the MacBook's.
If it's less that 12 months old, you should be able to get it fixed for free.

Contact whoever it was you bought it from, and they will either look after it, or direct you to who can repair it.

It took about 30 mins to repair, and all I had to do was make sure the shop that did the repair had my Serial Number so they could lodge the warranty claim to get the part before I brought it in.

Hope this all helps.
