I have to second both of these... what's the point in having a laptop if you're too worried about it getting "hurt" to actually use it?! My iBook goes everywhere and about once a week I need to give the screen a quick clean to get the little keyboard marks off it, but you can only see these from some angles. Considering how much typing I do on it I think this is fair enough. That and my hands do get rather oily. Remember, it's your money, make sure you get your money's worth out of the iBook. --Michael.
