Aptiva - 2140/2142 Considerations - Media Console slides when FDD button is pushed(w/o mtr stand)

Applicable to: World-Wide

Detail:
The Defiant Media Console, without the monitor stand, slides back when the FDD eject button is pressed. There are no rubber feet on the bottom of the Media Console to prevent this.

Answer / Workaround:
This is a known condition with media console. Console is designed/intended to be used with monitor stand which will keep console in place. Decision made not to add cost of extra rubber feet for small % of customers who may not use monitor stand. Also, Stealth I/II console had same design assumptions (no rubber feet).

Severity: 4
