Are you anal about your Mac???

[Prof.]

I don't know about you guys and gals, but I have to clean my MB at least once a week. I like making sure that it stays "new" looking for as long as possible

I suggest cleaning your MacBook with a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser; it works like a charm. My MB looks brand new every time

[mac-convert]

Nah - I just sand mine down and repaint it about every six months or so.

 

[bartelby]

Life's too short for that kind of nonsense.
I'll clean my Macs when they need it.

I am so anal about my MBP. I keep it in the sleeve it came with in my computer bag. I am getting a Speck See Thru sometime soon (via Amazon) so I will stop doing that, but yeah, it's my baby! I don't want it to get hurt!

 

[John Jacob]

I used to be that anal about my Powerbook 12". But now my poor baby is on its last legs, and will have to be replaced soon, so I let it get really dirty before I clean it.

 

[Markleshark]

I don't go that far, but I look after my Mac and iPod touch well, simply because I can't afford to be replacing them all the time.

 

[goodtimes5]

I'm scheduling a wet q-tip wash job for the MBP this weekend.

 

[miniConvert]

I keep my MBP in excellent condition. Got to have it looking its best! Any other brand of computer and I wouldn't be so bothered.

 

[Abstract]

One time, one of my Macs got a little bit dirty just to piss me off.


He was quickly sold to a Sri Lankan family that cooked really strong foods. Two months in that environment, and that little b**** got stained up good. Hah!

 

[twoodcc]

nah, i think i've cleaned my mbp maybe twice in a year

 

[0098386]

I clean mine every so often, but I just generally take good care of all my electronics. I sold my iPod Mini for a mint because it looked as if it had never been used.
My girlfriend hates that part of me. saying "these things are meant to be used!" but with resale values as high as Apples it's good to be nice to them

 

[Mord]

Once every six months I take it to bits and clean every part of it meticulously.

Other than that, no.

Yuck, the Speck See Thru is horrible ugly. Why muck up the looks of the MPB with some cheap clear plastic.

 

[MattG]

Probably every couple of months or so, I try to clean my MBP really well...get the palm prints/dirt off of it, make the screen really clean, etc. That's it.

 

[user13]

nah, i think i've cleaned my mbp maybe twice in a year

I do it even more rarely than that

 

[Stampyhead]

One of your what?

 

[leekohler]

Yep- my 3.5 year-old iBook looks like it just came out of the box. Well, other than a small crack on the corner by the hard drive. I use iKlear and Radtech Ice Creme. I also have an Incase sleeve. I know- dork.

 

[maccompaq]

I have 2 Windows laptops and one Mac laptop, and I never clean them, because I do not get them dirty.

 

[tzuckersim]

haha..its nice to know i'm not the only one who goes to great lengths to keep my macbook cclean. i can't stand ANY dust on the screen, EVER!

 

[twoodcc]

I do it even more rarely than that

well once i did it cuz it had gotten pretty dirty (infact, not very pretty) and the other was to clean it before putting a case-thing on it. (which i don't like)

 

[bigandy]

incredibly - to the point nobody touches them but me

my iphone, mbp and imac are all mine, all mine!

 

[Sesshi]

I just get another one when it's not looking so good. This applies to pretty much every notebook I have.

Although it has to be said that since I use many, each of my machines gets comparatively little 'hand time' and as a result they're in usually pretty good condition when they're past usefulness for me. This is usually much appreciated by whoever I give the machine to.

 

[simon-says]

My Powerbook has paint peeling on the inside, the little area below the keyboard. Two scratches on the outside of the case. So no.

It's been with me from east coast to west coast. Travels with me almost daily.

 

[GSMiller]

Yea I'm pretty anal with my iMac. I usually clean it once a week with a paper towel and Windex and before I go to sleep I make sure the keyboard and mouse and everything is straight and what not....

 

[rdowns]

On occasion but I'm more a missionary man.
