I'm so bummed about this. My one year old MacBook is chipping on either side of the keyboard where I rest my wrists. It hurts so bad! In retrospect, I wish I had been more proactive and purchased a protective case to prevent this type of thing. I suppose there's no time like the present to avoid future issues. Based on a friend's recommendation, I am considering the following option. (Please send me a comment if you have better ideas!)


Macally Protection Shell: $29.99
- Two piece snap-on protective leather shell
- Specially designed for you MacBook 13" Laptop
- Access to all ports and CD/DVD slot
- Ventilated rear to minimize heat built-up
- Suede inner lining to prevent scratches to your MacBook
SAME DAY UPDATE: I've discovered many other Mac users experiencing the same issue. It appears that Apple will replace the problematic part. Score! Like waking up from a bad dream, second chances are the best. I am still getting the case for better preservation. Check out this smoking hot red version. ZEXY! It will be mine. Oh yes. It will be mine.

Yeah, they fix it...and then it happens again...design flaw I suppose.
