Why not? I've seen pleny of power/ibooks with stickers on them. I for one am awaiting my custom sticker to put on, nothing big, just something to make it a little different.

I might be open to stickers on my MacBook in about a year or two when it starts to lose its luster... right now my main priority is to keep it as clean as possible.

But you need stickers, some bondo, make the fans a bit louder, put a big wing on the back. it will surely make the computer faster, afterall it works for cars, right?

The only sticker I have ever put on a Mac went on my iBook G3 a few years ago on the speakers. It was a little music note that looked just like the iTunes icon.

the only kind of sticker I would put on a laptop is something symmetrical. For example, something on either side of the trackpad, with a thin piece that connects thr 2 beneath the button.

I cant stand non symmetrical things.

window stickers work GREAT on the macbook. I occasionally throw on a sticker from a local public radio station in the area, just b/c it looks cool and i know it'll do no damage to my machine

I have an Intel Core Duo Inside sticker I was going to put on my BlacBook wrist area for grins...but I like the minimalist look of the book - so I think maybe not.
