I'm torn -- shiny new macbook pro, want to keep it pristine for as long as possible, but I've also got a burning desire to sticker it up.

    I only add stickers when it's a year old.

    I'd say stick it up only if it's devRant stickers. There's something about those stickers. :D Just don't overdo it.

    Reminds me of young woman I saw on a plane several years ago. Had a "f*ck corporations!" sticker on her Macbook right next to the Apple logo (NYSE: AAPL).

    @larsouille They are both Unix, so I don't see a problem.

    @matchacookie just use some isopropyl alcohol. Even 60% should work beautifully

    @LucaScorpion Yeah but the net cops are far more likely to pull it over.

    @Robbatron I have something similar but it's see through. Works a treat.

    The stickers are gonna protect your MBP from getting scratches.

    That's what I keep telling myself.

    @fyroc One cost €1500 min, the other is free. So that hurts me to put stickers on a €1500 machine. Then again, it's not my machine.

    Think about it this way: stickers will prevent your shiny new macbook from getting scratched. A little adhesive residue will come off with most any cleaner and a rag.

    No sticker residue :-) Tried countless times on my MBP, and stickers barely leaves anything, and what it does leave, can easily be removed by fingers or some cloth

    @Robbatron I was looking at those, it's almost a can't-lose at that price point.

    The problem with adding stickers is that most of the logos will be out of date in a couple of years. On the other hand, might be a good time gauge on when to get a new laptop.

    The sticker collection is growing! No cons or meetups in the near future, guess it's time to start ordering some of the ones on my wishlist! (Of course, devRant was the inaugural sticker...)
