Shaun - i was at mac expo a few months back, and a company called mac labs
had exactly what you were asking about. Didn't pick up one myself, i went
for the skin type thing instead with the last of my hard earned currency,
but it might be worth you googling mac labs to see how much the pads cost.
Hope that helps
Scott

Does anyone know if they have pads for the sides of the Mac Book Pro
where my hands lay for typing because sometimes after typing long papers
they hurt?

Hi Scott,
It needs working eyes because it is a skintight fit that is "glued" to
the surface of the Mac. It also has several pieces that have to be
positioned very accurately. Also, it is applied wet and bubbles will
form that make it unsightly.
BTW, it can be removed if necessary so the glue is not permanent, but
the plastic doesn't come off edasily.
To give you an idea of the process, it works something like applying
decals to model planes You get the stuff wet and when it dries, its
attached to the Mac.

hey marshall,
Sounds like a neat product, I'll look in to it more later to see if i
can get it shipped over to the UK. How come it needs the working eyes
to fit it out of interest?

Folks,
Just FYI there is a product called Invisible Shield that will protect
a portable Mac from scratches. It's a film that is used to protect
the leading edge of helicopter blades from sand and other debris. It
is custom fitted for specific Macs so it fits very well. The only
problem is that it will require sighted help to install it.
