Hey all,

My Macbook is an early 2008 model. After long deliberation, I've decided to protect the area around the trackpad (where you rest your palm) before it gets worn out. It's already really hot and sweaty from using it, so it's only a matter of time it gets all greyish.

But i've been suffering from constant warm heat from it, which is worse than before. To make things worse, i often have it on my bed, which makes it super hot, and the fan whirring like crazy.

I need advice (and no, pls don't ask me to remove the sticker. Not just yet anyways...)

THx

hey bro.
i kinda have the same problem as you do. like the heat coming up from the machine making my palms to sweat.
im using a mbp unibody. will my sweaty palms make the side of the trackpad color wear off? shocking.gif

wanted to get the moshi one but it makes my macbook have this 'another layer' thing around the trackpad. hmm so it means that the color of the unibody WILL come off?

No. It will not. Aluminum does not discolor. Some more the Moshi blends the color of Aluminum so well that you won't notice it's on.

so if it will not discolor den why need moshi? hmm.gif

im using the moshi palmguard double thumbs up..
but i did not stick the trackpad, u guys?! im afraid it might affect the sensitivity of the trackpad?! any comment in this?
*
i think the sensitivity issue is not a problem. cos loads of people have been using the moshi palmguard and they dont seem to b complaining abt the trackpad getting less sensitive. biggrin.gif

im thinking abt getting a mstand. will that help disperse heat, or shud i stick to my laptop cooler? but the mstand is so gorgeous thou. hahha! wub.gif

Get mStand+ Apple Wireless Keyboard + Apple Wireless Mighty Mouse. Best combo.
