[QUOTE="hermz1, post: 976358, member: 112376"] I'm also trying to decide between a 13" MB vs. MBP. I'd go with a MB because of the bigger hard drive but I have these 3 concerns: 1. It may be too soon to tell, but is there any reliable speculation or facts about whether the MB will be prone to heat damage over the long term, given that it has the rubberized bottom that may not dissipate heat as well as the aluminum MBP? 2. How sturdy is the MB around the edges of the screen? Compared to the MBP, the plastic screen edge would seem much more prone to wear and tear (remember the cracking on the older MBs). I am pleased with the sturdiness of the unibody construction of the bottom portion of the case, however, compared to the older non-unibody MBs. 3. Isn't the rubberized bottom of the case prone to excessive dirt? How easy is it to clean? [/QUOTE]
