I want my aluminum macbook to have a rubber bottom like my unibody white macbook does. it slips off my lap all the time and it is hard to pick up off carpet and stuff. Has anyone found a good way of getting something like this?

Buy a set of stick on rubber feet at Home Depot or Lowes. I wouldn't be attempting to spray anything on the bottom or elsewhere. That's a good way to destroy your computer. Also, you shouldn't be using it on your lap or carpet anyway. Today's portable computers are not "laptops", they're notebooks. Using it on the carpet or your lap prevents proper cooling.

Back to my old 2.2GHz C2D MB after selling my MBP and wondering what my next Mac will be :)

Speck makes a really nice pair of snap-on protective covers for the top and bottom of a MB. Besides doing their designed job, they are a lot easier to hang on to. And your MB won't slide all around either. These covers come in different colors and can be found at New Egg.

This sounds vaguely familiar. It's almost like Deja vu...
