    I've noticed that sometimes my hands will leave prints on the palmrests of the W2. Anyone have any suggestions on the best way to clean the marks? So far I've just been using a soft cotton cloth but are there any solutions that can be used which are more effective?

    BTW I'm loving my w2. Most beautiful computer on the planet!!!!!

    You're not going to hurt the anodizing or the aluminum with almost anything......... however a moist bounty paper towel (filtered water) is the best thing to clean your entire notebook with......... both the w2 and any other notebooks I've ever had...... the screen, the palmrest... everything. That should be enough to clean it off. Although on the anodizing, if you wanted to use rubbing alcohol, it's not going to hurt it....... where as with a painted abs resin (like on the carbon fiber and plain plastic models)... it could eat through the paint, and if it were to sit on there... soften the abs..... and as at least one member found out.... any screens logos that aren't engraved... will come off the easiest..... The W2 is all engraved and you don't have to worry about any of that..
