[QUOTE="Cloudane, post: 39881"] I assume the latest powerbook is plastic painted with a metal paint, as tapping it makes a "plastic" sound :p It's a great machine and I like to keep it clean, but this is the thing. Especially with the heat it produces, my sweaty palms keep messing up the surface either side of the trackpad and I find myself cleaning it all the time to keep it looking good :P Question is, assuming I'm right about the paint thing, is it fairly tough? Or will constant preening cause the paint to wear off and expose horrible white patches (therefore making it best only to clean it once in a while.)? Ta! [/QUOTE]
