I can't bring myself to put stickers on mine.
Sometimes I draw on them with sharpies/pens that can be wiped with alcohol, though xD

I put stickers on my stuff, but I also put a case on them. So I actually put the stickers on the cases.
On the Air I'm thinking of just putting a skin on it, and if I decide on stickers they will go on the skin.

I did once after years of not. And I will never ever again.
I spent hours and hours and hours scrubbing off the residue from the stickers that weren't meant to be put on a laptop. Managed to remove them without any damage to the laptop and sold it.
However, thanks to my wife, I have been to both UCR and UCLA and there are a lot of laptop stickers on really old MacBooks still being used today.
No stickers for me.

I have never put stickers on my computers. However, if I buy a Windows machine I do not take any stickers off of it. I like keeping things as they came from the factory. As it turns out that enhanced the resale value of some of my oldest Pentium computers, the stickers themselves make the machine more valuable. Funny how that is.

I put stickers on mine, to me they represent a specific time or place in my life. I will be adding a Turkish flag in honor of my friend who recently passed away.

I generally don't like any extra stickers on things. The whole design philosophy of Apple is aesthetic minimalism. That's like one of the draws to Apple for me. If anything I'd like it if they created a ghosted Logo so it's barely visible.

My 12.9 iPad Pro, an iPad Air, and until recently my 16inch MBP.
I've always been a fan of "sticker bombing" my devices, and with a case on them it's just a matter of popping the case off for resale.
I think I posted this ages ago in the iPad section
The problem has been lately with new Apple devices that are not iPhones, is that you have to wait it seems like a month before decent cases show. So it's awhile before I can start putting stickers on. Right now I am waiting for a DBrand skin to put on the 15inch MBA so as to not see the fingerprints. The skin I am getting though ( Seashell ) seems like it will look very sharp on a Midnight MBA so I may pass on the stickers for the first time.
