Hey Guys,

I just bought my first notebook, and like all new notebook buyers, I am still anal about keeping it perfect. I any case, I was wondering who has tips and tricks for keeping MacBooks running well.

For instance:

Battery Calibration:

Keeping clean:
Mr. Clean Magic Eraser

this is my second laptop, last one i sorta destroyed case scrathes all over, keys ripped off and filthy along with the battery only lasting 20 mins 100% now
 
Try to keep the MacBook and MagSafe as cool as possible with good ventilation. While in use, rest them on hard surfaces like a desk, book, cooling pad etc and avoid resting them on a soft surface like carpet, bedspread, lap, dirty laundry.

Also, keep your coke cans, water bottles and coffee cups away from your MacBook.

Enjoy -GDF
