I am thinking about the Spec case.

Also, I am thinking about the Palm Rest guards for my macbook. Where can I find the best of these?

Anyone else have any cool accessories that we should all know about?

I got the a Total Skin from bestskinsever....
I had somewhat of an annoying time putting on the Bottom skin (the 1st skin I tried). You have to make a water+mild soap solution and dip the kin in it, then apple it to the bottom of your MacBook.. Eventually I got it down perfectly, and it looks great now (can't tell it's there) as it protects the underside of the MacBook from scratches.

I had planned on using the Palm-Rest and Trackpad skins as well. Instead I decided just to let it be, and if it gets dirty, I'll clean it.

I also applied the GelaSkins decorative skin to the top.. THESE are a wonderful product!!! No water, very well made, just peel and stick! (CLICK here to see pictures on my MacBook).

Today I am receiving from UPS the iSkin SOHO case/sleeve and the iSkin ProTouch keyboard cover... I'm excited about the case, but hesitant about how the keyboard cover will feel and work... I guess I'll find out soon. :D

You may want to do a search here regarding the Speck case... I have seen that a few people had issues with dirt getting between the speck case and the MacBook, resulting in some fairly bad scratched.

I use an iBreeze.

It really helps get the air flowing under my macbook and it helps reduce temperatures of everything by 5-10 degrees F when in use.

Enjoy!

i can let you no that the Spec case is amazing!

i have a clear one for my MBP C2D and its the job, my mac is 6 months old now an theres not a scratch on it.

The case went on as soon as i bought it, £50 well spent.

oh i forgot to say, the spec case is also good as it just clips on to the body and the screen.

Please explain this further.
-Thanks

It's the iSkin Keyboard Protector. They have a transparent blue, black, etc....but I got the "Ghost" which glows in the dark...it has the letters/numbers printed on the protector since it is not transparent. I will take pics when I get it and with the green speck case for my macbook.

The only thing I have from there is the http://www.daydeal.com/product.php?productid=17396&cat=2757 -- it's a great product. I got it a whole lot cheaper actually, on eBay. I think $8 + SH, so $10. Ok, it's only $5, so it's not a whole lot cheaper, but nonetheless, cheaper!

It's a great and simple product. I don't know why people spend os much dough on a neoprene case... I'm talking those who spend $30+.

I got the black iSkin keyboard protector for my white Macbook and it looks and feels great. Typing is not as easy as it would be without the cover, but it's still extremely easy and relatively fast to type something. I'm planning on buying the white/ghost cover for the keyboard in the future since it will match my Macbook more. But the black one looks great.

I also have the Macally Bookpad, which is exactly like the Marware wristpad protection but without a huge logo on the pad. It's extremely soft and comfortable.

For the casing, I bought the Macessity Bookshell, which is basically like the Speckshell but with a simple, clean design like the Techshell and doesn't scratch the Macbook. There are more vent holes underneath as well.

Finally, I purchased a memory foam sleeve from Isis Covers. It's cheaper than most sleeves and does a great job at protecting my Macbook as it is impact resistant.

Wow, all this stuff you guys have for your Macbooks. Makes me feel stupid I never got anything for my MBP, except a InCase carrying bag.
