Naming no names and assigning no blame, I merely ask, "What do I do now that my laptop has shown that it does not have the ability to fly, or stay on the boot of a car at 45mph?"

It is dinged up but still use-able (as I type on it now.) Dings are on left side, both corners, but bad enough to have an eighth inch vent in left corner, where the bottom is not so seamless any more. It now has that annoying rock a dining table with a short leg has when I type.

Do I (we) replace it with a brand new or refurbed laptop?

Use it and augment with the i(can't believe I'm typing this stoopid name)Pad?

Keep it as is? (No other device.)

Or take it in to the Apple store and see what they recommend? After they are done laughing at us, that is.

Any advice would be appreciated? Snickers will be ignored.
