New laptop casing

[elaby]

Some of you may have remembered that the casing on my laptop (the plastic plate around the keyboard) was cracking and bits kept coming off. Well, I took it down to the Apple store at the North Shore Mall in Peabody (and saw i_am_sassafras! Yay!) and asked them if there was anything they could do about it. They took it and within two hours replaced the plate :) My keys feel different, too (rougher) so I wonder if they also replaced the keys. Anyway, it's shiny and clean and not cracked now. And speaking of clean, when I was at the store being helped, this conversation took place *giggles*:

Mac Genius: *scans ID code on computer* Whoa! This is a 2006!
elaby: Yeah...
Mac Genius: I would've sworn it was a 2008! Good god, do you ever use this?
elaby: Every day ^^;;
caitirin: She treats that thing like a newborn baby.
Mac Genius: I'll say. *turns to other Mac guy helping customers* Hey dude, look at this! It's a 2006!
Other Mac Genius: Pssht, no way.
Mac Genius: Yeah way! I thought it was a 2008!
Other Mac Genius: Seriously? How do you keep it that clean? People come in here with the "yellow version"...
elaby: ^^;; I'm really careful with it.

Really really careful with it, apparently XD

LOL, this. As someone who has worked in an electronic-type store, you would not believe the horrors that come through places.
