hi guys, i dont know if this is in the right thread, i couldnt find anything for accessories. anyway, my birthday is coming up in a few days, and i have around 230 dollars to spend. i was thinking of buying windows 7, but then i said no, itll be junk. i have a unibody macbook 13 inch, and i was just wondering what are some cool accessories to buy for it, and what do they do. i am interested in things like hacking into my personal things, like modifying my ipod and stuff. please post as it would be very helpful! thanks!
 
You can get skin or vinyl for it. Some people think its a waste of money but i'm an artsy guy so i like my macbook with a bit of personality.

Ummmm +1 for the mentioning of the monitor. Dell usually sells them for cheap and i like the quality. External hard drive can't hurt, especially if you want to put all your media on something that can be transferred elsewhere.
 
I would buy a new case for it (but that is because I really don't like scratches). Also, I am really happy that I bought the irain laptop stand and some prefer the elevator. Or just buy a very large iTunes gift card for yourself. I can never have enough iTunes credit.
 
If you are a student or have an .edu email account you can get Win 7 for $30. Unfortunately, Microsoft can't always be like Apple, as that price provides no disk and is only a promotion that ends in January.

IIRC for $12 added you can get a DVD mailed out to you. Also, just for a head's up, the $30 version is an UPGRADE version, not the full version. You can install it and do a couple registry mods though and set it up without a previous installation so it will effectively be the full version (http://www.winsupersite.com/win7/clean_install_upgrade_media.asp)
