part of the reason for this is i want to take a shot at cocoa. also, my old dell laptop crapped out a while ago, so i've been using my work laptop at home.
edit > yep, $50 discount on student. nice. wonder if i can get better. did someone say rick has a friend? and did i ever offend mque?

My Macbook's plastic case has not aged very well, and I don't take it many places. It seems some of the design places stress on certain areas around the edges which caused fractures in the plastic. Now I'm missing about 2mm of plastic in some spots
I'd definitely save up for an aluminum one.
