I know that I have seen posts regarding the problem that many are having with the paint that rubs off or the TiBook edges. Will Apple warrantee the paint from peeling? If not, how can this problem be fixed?

Apple is covering the paint problem, at least they covered my 667 DVI. They may probe on the phone to make sure what you have is peeling paint and not an abused PowerBook, but you can't blame them for that. If your paint is starting to bubble up and then flake off, I think your good for a warranty repair.

Thanks I will contact Applecare and arrange for them to fix it. I take good care of my Powerbook and there is no reason for the paint to wear out. Thanks again.
