Black MacBooks were always my pick

Wash your hands before you eat and/or use the computer.

Owners of white MacBooks are reporting a yellow discoloration mostly on the palm rest area of the device, according to a growing number of members on an Apple Computer discussion board.

The discoloration seems to be occurring after just a few weeks of use. MacBook owners experiencing the problem have tried an array of cleaners, to no avail.

An Apple representative could not immediately be reached for comment and the company hasn’t responded yet to the disccusion board.

Some surmise that the yellowing is caused by heat coming from the device combined with hand grime. [cnet]
