What is it about MacBooks and stickers? What drives people to cover that pristine white (or black) plastic with other people’s brands and logos?

Some people even start putting stickers on the inside. Maybe they ran out of space on the outside.

But now, you see, I’m wondering. Who has the most stickered MacBook of them all? Should that even be a contest that people would want to win? Are the MacBook-stickerers good or are they bad?

So who’s got the most-stickered Macbook around here? Links to your be-stickered masterpieces, please.

    Damnit, I wish you’d have posted this later on this evening. I have a massively stickered up macbook at home but have no current pics of it. Here’s a link to it’s sticker status from WWDC earlier this may: http://flickr.com/photos/sahil

    And I was just debating whether I should deface my new MacBook 13″. I think I’ll wait…

    I won’t win any prizes but I enjoy covering my MB.

    I lose. Well, technicaly I own a creaking PowerBook, but I’d never mess with the beautiful Apple design. But I guess if I had a nondescript black MacBook – the Mac to buy if you want people to think you’re using a PC – I guess I’d want to hide it too.

    Eww. That makes me sad.

    No stickers for me. But that’s because it’s company owned. If it were mine however… So instead of covering my MacBook I just started covering my external LaCie disks. Why? It gives them a more raw and rugged look. And that’s what I like!

    I wouldn’t put stickers on any of the mac laptops in our house – but that one is actually pretty cool.

    Yeah, because that bright white glowing apple doesn’t give it away

    I’ll admit I’d go for the occasional static cling decoration, maybe a custom made. But temporary, and probably one at a time. Never anything permanent. It may also be that I don’t want people in my office thinking I’m a 12 year old girl.

    The one at the top belongs to my buddy Paul ‘psd’ Downey. Cool!

    Mine is more dense but a bit more anal in its sticker coverage…
