Surely, by now, everyone knows about the notorious paint chipping problems related to G4 Power Books. Well, not so fast. According to an Apple Store sales rep I just spoke to, there is no paint chipping problem. That?s right. In fact, he went out of his way to suggest that I was the first person out of thousands he has spoken with to suggest such a things. According to him, he has never even heard of such a problem.



This is my question. Is there a paint chipping issue with G4 PBs, or is the whole paint chipping issue a total fabrication?

    I've got 7 of them here. They've been to Awards Shows, Press Junkets, fVcking FRANCE and I've not seen 1 "paint problem."

    And some people are particularly brutal with laptops. I think you're that one in a thousands. YOu should feel proud.

    Only paint chipping i've seen is when my roommate dropped mine...



    Perhaps if you're extra-careless...

    I've actually got a slight paint problem in the lighter area above the dvd drive. It's right where my palm rests on the top. It's not too bad, but I know it's not because of anything I did. Maybe some people have more corrosive perspiration than other people? Or maybe there's something about climate that affects it. Who knows... <img src="confused.gif" border="0">
