    I got the a8js over the weekend from milestonepc and everything's been great except for a slight beef with the upper left corner of the keyboard. It seems to be slightly lifted off of the casing below so that anytime I press a key in that area ('1' or 'tab' for instance) I get a really loud clicking noise. If I press lightly on the whole area without depressing the keys themselves, the corner moves down a few millimeters. Other than this corner, the rest of the keyboard is quite solid and stable.

    Is this something I should worry about? Can I fix it without breaking warranty? Is it worth contacting ASUS or milestonepc about? Have other people had the same problem? Is there a good 'how to take apart your A8js' guide that might show me how get under the keyboard and possibly fix it?

    Any guidance is appreciated.
