Would the MacBook Pro have built-in Wireless WAN? A Blu-ray drive? An LED display? Well, one out of three isn't bad. The Apple MacBook Pro 15-inch (LED) embeds a new display technology called LED backlighting, not to mention an array of processing parts that range from a new Intel Core 2 Duo processor to a new graphics core from nVidia."

Fabricated from a flexible soft silicone and precision molded to fit over each key without affecting your typing, it protects your keyboard from crud both wet and dry. More specifically (according to its Web page), it will protect against food, dust, hair, dandruff, sweat, ketchup (and similar liquids), sand, spills, finger oils and dirt, key wear, and more."
