    does it get worn down quick? i keep reading around that they get that "oily and used look" really quickly. that's a huge turnoff for me :(
    i've been using an asus netbook for a year now and the keyboard looks mint, like brand new.

    M11x - yes due to the black keys I think. I have oily hair and fingers so it's noticeable for me. Reminds me of the Unibody Macbook black keys. I had to get a moshi clearguard to protect the keys from my oily self haha

    so for me, left side of space bar has an oil marking, the wasd keys too =)
