Yes, I've noticed this too, I think that is where the hard drive is and there is a little gap of space right there so the case gives a little in that one point. Just turn on some music and you will never notice it =)

Mine does too. All the Dual USBs I've had (500MHz, 700MHz, 1GHz) have began to squeak within months. Does not matter, though

Yup, same with my G4 800. Still the build quality is much better than any Dell laptop I have handled.

I have just noticed that my 12" 1GHz iBook (purchased in July 2004) has just begun to squeak, when my any amount of pressure is applied to the left wrist rest. Has anyone sought a solution to this problem? The squeaking is tolerable, but I wouldn't mind too much if it didn't squeak neither. -- Tony

Yep,mine too.
On the other side of the case in front where the battery is,there are several screws holding that side tight,but on the left side the case halves are just held by clips.
The clips just have some play and the plastic doesn't help keep it tight either.
This is one reason the Aluminum PB seems like the machine for me.
It seems kind of silly maybe but the ALuminum PB just feels like a more solid machine.So much so that I may trade battery life and wireless reception for it.

Actually on my 500, if I press down on the back left corner, it kills the display.

I have never heard mine squeek after I read this I tried to make it squeek and I had to apply alot of pressure to do so. It does not squeek when I use it normally.
