It's kinda funny. I had the same thing happen to me. One of the little plastic nibs that hold the front of the case on, was broken. Probably from impact.

The feeling of dissapointment sux when you get something broken in the mail. But at least you can get it replaced.

On the mb, make sure the fine, delicate plastic parts are not broken. Another time, because I live at about 7,500 feet altitude, the inflatible packaging inside the mb I bought, EXPANDED. It expanded so much that it got so tight inside the package that it cracked the motherboard and the little plastic slides that hold the RAM. It was totalled.

Just be careful cuz the mb is the soul and backbone of your computer. When you mount it, make sure to use spacers so nothing touches the metal and it's all flat and not warped. Word.

Ask me as you go along...
