Re: not a looping topic, but i did it while looping..!

["Kevin Goldsmith" <kevin-ml@unitcircle.com>]

I had the exact same thing happen to my 12" PB not so long ago. The 
denting was just around the battery compartment. With some needle-nose 
pliers I was able to bend it back into shape mostly without having to do 
anything other than having the battery out.

If you have AppleCare, don't bother, they will take care of you.

If you don't, you might want to price out some non-Apple-owned repair 
shops. I know there are several in the SF area.
