I bought a MBP about 3 months ago. It's not getting a ton of use because i have a mac mini w/ two monitors and i have not had the need to travel w/ the laptop. But one reason I really started to really hate this laptop was that it's so slick and slippery on the bottom. I could put it on a desk and accidentally move the keyboard away from me. I finally got fed up and did some internet searching and found this company called egrips out of TX that makes strips called "Gecko Strips". WHAT A HUGE DIFFERENCE. These four strips are tall/thick enough to clear the 4 black worthless circular "grip" pads that are std on the MBP and the strips are long enough to where the laptop doesn't slide around. In fact, I put it on my little Ikea table and I could move the table by pushing the laptop. Now this might not be news to some of you as I believe this product has been around, but just wanted to pass on a good find.

Where did you buy them? We found then in an open box store and could never find it again! Those things are the best for cell phones!
