OUCH... condolences.  That's the kind of incident that makes you want 
to set all your gear on fire and take up the Amish faith...

You know, I just bought an XL-7 and I've done a LOT of research into 
it... and I was convinced it was a solid box... but this kind of 
makes me a little skittish.  Seriously, if this happened to me, I 
would very likely end up with a big pile of smashed bits that USED to 
be an XL-7.

I understand that sometimes things like this happen... but PLEASE 
tell me its a very UNcommon occurrence...

Again, condolences to you... I know this is really half assed, but 
hey, now you can begin fresh and make newer, cooler stuff :)
