ME TOO!

I bought mine (brand new from the Apple store) 6 weeks ago. iBook G4 
- and the "T" and "S" are almost completely gone already. The "R" and 
"D" are starting to wear off... this is ridiculous. Samantha - did 
you buy yours from an Apple store?

I asked/complained about it here a week or so ago and several folks 
suggested calling or going to the Apple store about this problem. Of 
course I live 75 miles from the Apple store so it's not convenient... 
but I do need to call at least (surely there is a toll-free number 
somewhere...) This is ridiculous... I've not even used it every 
single day - and I don't even type that much on this computer. (use 
my Sawtooth for that).

Do others here have comments on this phenomenon?

Thanks and take care,
Michelle & Herd
