      <title>MacBook Recommendation: Stop Cracking!</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#8217;ve been happy as a MacBook customer so far, with the unfortunate exception that I have been affected by the &lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/groups/crackedmacbook/pool/"&gt;&amp;#8220;chipped casing &lt;u&gt;design flaw&lt;/u&gt;&amp;#8220;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;strong&gt;twice&lt;/strong&gt;. Now that my year-warranty has expired, I found a pretty convenient way to protect the casing and keyboard when it is shut: &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&amp;#38;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FMarware-Protection-Pack-MacBook-Black%2Fdp%2FB000GJ5IZW%3Fpf%5Frd%5Fp%3D304485601%26pf%5Frd%5Fs%3Dlpo-top-stripe-2%26pf%5Frd%5Ft%3D201%26pf%5Frd%5Fi%3DB000GJ5J6A%26pf%5Frd%5Fm%3DATVPDKIKX0DER%26pf%5Frd%5Fr%3D1CR1JCGAY7KVYF7944SM&amp;#38;tag=httpblogsolid-20&amp;#38;linkCode=ur2&amp;#38;camp=1789&amp;#38;creative=9325"&gt;this Marware package&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=httpblogsolid-20&amp;amp;l=ur2&amp;amp;o=1" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" /&gt; comes with a restickable wrist pad and a soft cloth for protecting your keyboard.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;20 bucks, but it&amp;#8217;s definitely better than the hundred-some-odd I&amp;#8217;d pay the third time that the casing would chip. You can buy it for your &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&amp;#38;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FMacBook-Marware-Protection-Pack-White%2Fdp%2FB000GJ5J6A&amp;#38;tag=httpblogsolid-20&amp;#38;linkCode=ur2&amp;#38;camp=1789&amp;#38;creative=9325"&gt;White Macbook&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=httpblogsolid-20&amp;amp;l=ur2&amp;amp;o=1" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" /&gt; or your &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&amp;#38;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FMarware-Protection-Pack-MacBook-Black%2Fdp%2FB000GJ5IZW%3Fpf%5Frd%5Fp%3D304485601%26pf%5Frd%5Fs%3Dlpo-top-stripe-2%26pf%5Frd%5Ft%3D201%26pf%5Frd%5Fi%3DB000GJ5J6A%26pf%5Frd%5Fm%3DATVPDKIKX0DER%26pf%5Frd%5Fr%3D1CR1JCGAY7KVYF7944SM&amp;#38;tag=httpblogsolid-20&amp;#38;linkCode=ur2&amp;#38;camp=1789&amp;#38;creative=9325"&gt;Black MacBook&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=httpblogsolid-20&amp;amp;l=ur2&amp;amp;o=1" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" /&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
