Anyone else somewhat annoyed by the sharp edge of the Macbook? My PB had a fairly rounded and soft plastic edge all the way around, but this has a noticable bite to it if you catch it just right. It could use a bit of rounding so it doesn't try to slit my wrists while I type sometimes. :/

Doesn't bother me a bit. It's noticeable but I don't think you're going to be cut by it, even if you intentionally try to cut yourself.

I took a very fine nail finishing stone to slightly smooth the edges. It's more comfortable now and the mod is invisible. Probably not as great an idea on a BlackBook though.

Yes it is sharper than you would think it should be, but you're exaggerating it a bit.

It struck me that way when it was on a table in the store that was higher than proper typing height. I don't find it to be a problem on my 27.5" high computer desks or in my lap in the recliner.

I've got no beef with it. It's not like it's goig to cut you, anyway.

Yea, I know its not going to cut me or anything, but it just struck me as more noticable on these than any other laptop I have used. I thought about rounding it with some fine sandpaper or something, but not sure about doing it on black either.

Yeah, I didn't notice the edge until I was using it on the couch in a reclined position. It really IS sharp if you hit it just right. I'll definately be filing it down this week...

Yes. Mine is sharp as well. I wish that it was not as sharp. No cuts, but still hurts my hands.
