You don't need to obsessively analyse every inch of a laptop to notice that it looks dirty, you see it at a glance the moment you open the lid. If you can't, maybe a trip to the optometrist is in order.
It's easier to to show the marks on the lid because it's a larger, less obstructed surface area. That doesn't mean they aren't showing up elsewhere, those spots just aren't as conducive to capturing on camera. This isn't rocket science.
Knowing that fingerprints appear on an aluminum surface isn't rocket science either, but was apparently a revelation for many, yourself included.
Did you hit reply on the wrong comment or something? I never said I was surprised that fingerprints appear on aluminium, I said I don't see them on my starlight machine. Seeing them is the issue. Seriously, look into that optometrist, it sounds like your eyes might be worse than you think.
I'm a bit OCD about new things too. It's part of why I almost prefer getting things that are a year or two old. I no longer have the expectation of it looking new, so it doesn't bother me when I see imperfections that are bound to arise with normal use.
For sure, usually why I buy a car thats slightly used instead of brand new as well. I just have a hard time trusting used electronics, too many fakes out there.
Imagine how much of a huge seller it would be for apple to sell it lol
Yea electronics are a risky market for Macs. I'd feel at least somewhat confident shopping for one because I know what to look for (my first Mac was used and it was a great purchase), but I understand why a lot of people are apprehensive. I've seen plenty of listings that have red flags such as not listing the year, claiming an Intel model is M1, "minor water damage, just needs a new keyboard," not listing battery health, etc. And that's not even mentioning the iCloud-locked ones that are are more common than they should be.
It doesn't look nice at all. Like why get a color that doesn't look nice but pretty dirty?
It's to protect others because I haven't wiped my a$$ for over 4000 days.
Fingerprints? I mean, they're on furniture. They're on dishes. They're on car handles. You might as well wear a hazmat suit, then maybe you, too, can become a real man.
