I didn't drop/mistreat it to my knowledge either. Thanks for tips re replacement I think I'll hit them up about it. My macbook, purchased Jan 2007 has the exact same prob.

Mine whine a little when it's on battery, and a lot when it's charging. It seems, after a little search, that the problem is only known for the Macbook Pro. Very annoying... And now i learn that the chassis isn't strong enough to resist to normal usage. I am quite disappointed by this laptop, maybe Apple is not the good constructor i expected it was.

I brought it into the Apple store, and they replaced it under warranty. This happened to mine as well (crack right under where the little “feet” in the screen touch the chasis).

On mine I can see definite marks where the lid 'feet' meet the chasis so maybe it's just a matter of time + how often opened & closed.

He went down to the local Apple store and complained. He got a replacement as far as I recall. It is the casing that cracks, from stress or something like that I guess.

The chassis hasn't broken (yet), but there is a visible, small crack in the chassis *exactly* where yours has broken. I too have a Macbook that’s about 6 months old.
