Alaina Bartley ( Blacksburg, VA USA ) Very practical, especially if you eat around your computer
I'm known to eat or drink around my computer on a regular basis. I spilled Sprite Remix on my first MacBook during my freshman year of college. Now 6 yrs later my new, slightly more responsible self knew I should get some protection for the new MacBook. This product blends in nicely with my computer, I sometimes even forget that it's not attached. It's kind of awkward to type on, but I normally have my computer plugged into a keyboard, so it's not really an issue. Definitely worth it for the protection it provides.

Conversation Girl ( Boston, MA USA ) Best I could find...
I have a white Apple MacBook purchased Jan 2009. I tried a different keyboard skin and had to send it back, but this one fits very well and you can close the laptop with no problems. The grip is good and it is pretty easy to type, which can be a problem with some of the skins. It is made very well and seems durable and like it will last a long time. I like it a lot and it was the best one I could find, but there are a few annoying things. These issues may apply to all skins , not just this brand. I don't know because this is the first one I have ever used. The material used attracts hair and dust and it can be a bit hard to clean. You can't dry it because cloth and paper towel stuff will stick, so you have to be careful to keep the inside clean and free of dust/stuff so it does not end up in the keyboard when you re-apply the skin. I rigged up a chip clip and I hang it to air dry. I recommend this product, but keep these things in mind. Enjoy :)

Johann Alpacaburg Serves its purpose but is slightly problematic
Positives:
(+++) The product is an effective shield for your keyboard from dirt, dust, etc.
(++) Tight fit.
(++) Palm rests can stop the feet of the lid from cracking the case (the Apple store fixes this problem for free but its still a hassle)
(+) Comfortable palm rest.
Negatives:
(---) Obstructs ventilation. The keyboard acts as an intake (the macbook only has one fan, an outtake). When the fan hits 4,500+ rpm you can easily tell air is coming in through the keyboard, and i'm wary to do anything to interrupt that process.
(---) The keys don't depress evenly, changing the action of the keyboard to make it 'mushy'. Some kind of inset inside the key probably could have fixed this.
(--) Doesn't fit with laptop covers that cling to the edges of the palm rest.
(-) The cover is translucent but the printing doesn't match up with the keyboard, which is a minor aesthetic point in an otherwise nice looking product
I wouldn't recommend this product for everyday use but it accomplishes its basic task (protecting the keyboard) well.

D. Smith ( Michigan USA ) Not that good
Just couldn't get along with it, tried it for a while but got annoyed by the ends curling up every time your sleeve catches the edges. It does a good job of protecting the Macbooks wrist pad which is prone to cracking on the front, but I have ordered the Moshi pad guard instead. Although the Moshi does not protect the keys from dust or spills it will protect the wrist pad from the cracking issue that all white Macbooks suffer. If you have this generation of Macbook I would urge you to get some protection for it, either this skin if you can tolerate it or the Moshi, as your precious Mac will eventually crack due to opening and closing.

Res Ident Love this product!
The seller shipped the product fastly and the product is awesome. It prevents the keys from getting dirty and avoids anything that is spilled from getting inside the laptop from under the keys on the keypad. Unlike other keyboard skins, this one covered the entire keypad and is great!
