Dylan, Other World Computing has a laptop screen protector, made of soft leather, for $14.95. Below ia from their website: OWC LSP Laptop Screen Protector Have you ever noticed that the keyboard is leaving marks on the LCD screen? Apple PowerBooks made since the 1998 Wallstreet models all the way up to the brand new PowerBook G4 Titanium have had problems with their keyboards coming into contact with the delicate LCD display and leaving marks on the screen that sometimes will not come off. Most are oils left from your fingers on the key caps; however, some are not removable. Why take a chance? We at Other World Computing have been troubled by this for a number of years. And instead of just putting up with the problem, we decided to do something about it. We have created..... Made of 100% top grain leather cowhide, this is a beautiful solution to the problem. Finely crafted from first quality 1 oz. (approximately 1-2 mm thick) black vegetable tanned cowhide, it is an elegant accessory for any laptop. Please note, this is an all NATURAL product. Some slight marks, or blemishes may appear on the surface of the protector. This is not because of low quality, it should be viewed as proof of a genuine leather product. Leather has always been thought of as one of the most durable natural materials, and it is also very soft. The leather used to create the Laptop Screen Protector is glove soft, you can be assured that it will protect your screen from any marks. The Laptop Screen Protector has one side of the leather finished in a smooth, tight pinpoint grain, called a chrome finish, to protect your screen from any lint or dirt gathered by an unfinished hide. The back side that lays on top of the keyboard is a soft suede backing, natural unfinished leather hide. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
