oooouch O_O I hope it's not leaking~~ *ducktapes it*

[caniche]

Eeeps, waht happened?

[furahi]

It was fine, I took it out of my backpack and opened it, I hear a crack, I closed it to see what was cracking, and everything still seemed fine, then I opened it again and I heard a louder crack... and suddenly it became very easy to open and close the lid =P

[furahi]

At least it has accidental damage plus theft warranty, and is still under warranty, so I'm not too worried :)

I've seen them break at the hinges from stress, but never around the hinges. What'd you do, sit on it? :X

[furahi]

Nope, just opened it. Didn't drop it either :/ See above

[artfulreggie]

At least all that gym time is finally paying off!

(I take it this isn't your HP Mini?)

[furahi]

No, this is my main laptop, an Asus V1S

LOL, from the article:

The hinges are very strong, the screen dosen't wobble or shake when you move the laptop, nor is it ridiculously hard to open like my old Sony.

[spikedpunch]

Yeah, that must have been a nice drop.

[furahi]

I didn't even drop it, I wish I had.

Heh, looks like something I'd get handed at work.
"What, you saying I dropped it?"

[furahi]

I didn't drop it, that's what's screwed up :/ The area around the hunge just gave...
See above

Bummer, those hinges are exposed to a lot of stress. I baby mine but even it's starting to loosen up. (didn't mean to sound like 'you broke it', I just get tossed a lot of stuff that's damaged far beyond normal wear and tear :}

[furahi]

Well, yes, I too think they might say it's beyond normal wear and tear, which is why I'm glad it came with accidental damage warranty also ;)
