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.
