aspire one users, is your power button sort of recessed?

Is your power button on the top right sort of recessed into the body and harder to push without using a fingernail (i have larger hands)? It almost feels like there's a little 1mm gap between when the button is pressed and it makes contact with the button underneath. If you tap it, it makes a little "springy" sound.

It seems the newer ones may have fixed this but swore I noticed this in a couple a while ago. Does anyone else have this? Thanks.

I've noticed that on most of their models, including the latest ones, they take a harder press than you would expect to actually contact the button.
It's just something we gotta live with, I guess.
