I first tried with both screws -- was very careful to get everything
seated properly and the Newt back together properly, and my lid
wouldn't catch on either snap.

I'm going to open it back up, put the second screw back in, and live
with it. Apparently, there are manufacturing tolerance differences
between units -- some people's work fine, others don't.

Don't get me wrong -- I'm happy with the SER-001. I'll just have to
learn to deal with a lid that won't catch. Like I said, I'm probably
going with the flip-top cover anyway, so I won't be using the
foldback lid.
