Mac Forum / General / Portable Macs / October 2007Powerbook case skin or grippies?
Hi- Kinda wish I got an ibook... What are my options for covering the aluminum with a something less slippery and that offers more protection? It would be best if it were removable without leaving gummy residue if it needs to be removed (if it wears poorly.) Are there really no options? Thanks Y [X-Post to *.for-sale.* groups snipped] > Hi- > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Are there really no options? Are we talking about the bottom? how about some little rubber stick-on feet. If they wear poorly, buy more! I think that anything you stick onto the case will be difficult to remove because of the heat. There are sticky backed sheets of felt available in craft stores, which are used on the bottom of lamps and such, to protect furniture. That would work, but I'd consider it permanent, expecting to replace it when it wears. And you'd have to make sure you can get to the battery compartment, and any screws needed to open the case.

A Google search turned up: <http://www.macskinz.com/> However, I'm unsure about whether they actually have anything to fit modern PowerBooks -- their FAQ section claims they do, but the product page doesn't turn up any skins for *any* PowerBooks. You may want to contact them and find out some specifics. Signature-Thomas <http://www.bitjuggler.com/> Hello. This is no answer, but, just think about crude result : http://e-scribe.com/misc/titanium/ Kinda great ? ______________________ LT - <ltual@altern.org> > Hi- > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > Y On 10/22/2007 5:45 AM PT, Ant typed: > I have an old PowerBook G4 (PPC) with 1 Ghz CPU speed, 512 MB of RAM, > and 60 GB of HDD.

So, anyone running the new OS (clean install) on low-end machines with 512 MB of RAM like my above specifications? :) Signature"Don't be no Ant-Man.
