Well, my Macbook got hit by the discoloration on the palm rests. While not as bad as the picture above, it was starting to be noticable. So before letting it get worst, I decided to get it taken care of ASAP. Made an appointment at a local Apple store’s Genius Bar and even tho it was only slightly starting to show, they said they would replace the top under warranty. All they asked was if I smoked(I don’t, if your wondering). 7 days was my turnaround time, which is along time to be with a computer, but now I’m back and better than ever.

2 days before I picked up my Macbook they offically acknoweledged the problem with KB Article 304058. I’ve since moved to using an iCurve and Apple KB/Mouse.

While surfing around this morning for a new wallpaper I ran across M’s Desktop Pictures. Beautiful Anime wallpapers with different Apple logos and products. Definitely stop by take a look and add alittle sex appeal to your desktop. Most wallpapers include a widescreen version too.

If you’re like me and can’t figure out which one you like the best, try this. Download all the wallpapers into a folder, then under Desktop and Screensaver, choose the folder and set �Change picture every X minutes� and check �Random Order�.

Enjoy.
