[QUOTE="eekimus, post: 56552"] Hi I'm new here :cool: I'm from Australia, I am aware of Absolute Zero and the way I should act :bone: I will try my best to abide by the rules...Anyways, I've been a zealous laptop user for most of my life. Originally with an IBM thinkpad, I upgraded to a Compaq P4 2.0Ghz (purchased 2 years ago). The rumoured issues with the powerbook being hot, bad battery life etc shouldn't bother me too much. I don't have a mac yet, but it should arrive sometime in mid November. Its a 17" 1.5Ghz Powerbook G4, no upgrades. Anyways, I'm not sure if anybody has had this problem, but I am paranoid. - Is there a possibility that the aluminium chassis of the powerbook would start to corrode from all the sweat etc? - If this corrosion/pitting/removal of nice silver colour was to occur, how do I prevent it from happening?
