    I found some of this lovely furry fabric at home and I just had to use it. So I sat down with the sewing machine and ended up with a beautiful cow-coloured Powerbook sock :D

    You could actually sell these things, they do look cool indeed.

    But does the fur hold static?

    I think there are plenty of other people who sell something similar for a lot of money, I have no intention of competing with them.

    No idea if it holds static though, I shouldn't think I need to worry :p

    I'd rather have the pb itself, but wouldn't mind the sock once I have the laptop to put it around. Which reminds me... need to spend that xmas money... it seems that my bank account gained a few hundred bucks that I can't explain, not that I'm complaining.

    You've had it months and you only just noticed it? Can't be that obvious then, surely?
