    HAL has you firmly in his grasp.

    Don't worry. Everything is fine. Just don't make any sudden moves.

    Yeah if you like it, go for it. But just so you know- the ibm badge from the factory is actually inset in a little cutout in the case. That will actually be rasied.

    Not that inset vs raised matters, but if the logo matters at all, then it might to you. Just an fyi. You're still getting them with IBM logo on both palmrest and lid currently, from the website.

    Holy thread revival, Batman!

    I picked mine off and used a water and towel to remove the remaining residue. Works well and didn't leave a trace.

    Cool. I think I might do this. The IBM logo is iconic.

    I actually like the new logo better. The colouring is more discrete...
