I wonder, is there a way to remove dust and or fingerprints without harming the finish? IS this a painted on or powdered finish or is it aluminum thru and thru?


Thanks all

Isn't the G5 anodized aluminum as well as the PB, iSight, and new cinema displays? I'm not sure but just go with a towel and some warm water, I think commonsense can answer your question, but obviously I have none answering it for you.
