Checked with my sister... it doesn't turn on at all. Could be related to the power supply/battery, but hard to say. $2349 (student price) x 6% sales tax / 6 years = $414.99 per y…

Ya seriously, my TiBook's paint scratched of on the front side, where my wrists made contact, on towards the back where my fingernail would scratch off a little paint every time I …

mine is starting to flake off as well... it's happening on the corners, where it's most easily scratched etc. the paint is very easy to flake off.

Hi everyone - flame me if this point is too obvious - but maybe this is a case of peeling instead of flaking. Just like you can only peel a price sticker off from the edge, have yo…

I think this claim is just an isolated incident. I got my Blackbook yesterday and the finish seems quite durable. Chill out people, there are always going to be a few lemons out th…

The focus of this list is cases that are tailored to fit the Macbook. For everything else there's the "monster thread" (henceforth MT) in the Pro forum. As it turns out, MacBook d…
