    If you have a ThinkPad, have you done anything to it? I've been thinking of putting stickers on mine but I don't want to ruin the rubberized finish. I've also heard of people replacing the rubberized lid case with different styled ones. I have a W530, and while I do like the business look, I feel like it needs something on the lid besides fingerprints(damn texture).

    I think the rubberized finish is the best one for your thinkpad. Personally i wouldn't ruin it

    I've Carbon Wrapped mine, mainly because the rubber finish was slightly scratched and stained (due to my friend's sweaty palms) which irked me to do something about it.
