Those stickers are meant to be demo stickers like if your machine were on display. When you buy a notebook, camcorder, fax machine or any other piece of equipment the stickers should be removed with the exception of the product key and serial number stickers on the bottom or rear of your unit.

I remove only the
2) The warning and caution labels (generally transparent) -
Plus it looks less used to other people when you go to sell it later on. -
Recieved the Kubuntu disc today, it didnt come with stickers =/
Would be nice to have that cool blue sticker. -
I remove all the 'in yo face' stickers. Keeps the proc, graphics and OS stickies though, just in case I forget -
I got my Ubuntu disc today. It came with 4 huge stickers. About 1"x4" each. I was hoping that it would be small like 3/4"x3/4" like the vista sticker. Oh well. Time for the vista/centrino/nvidia stickers to come off, since the ubuntu stickers fail.

I keep them on...except on my dell Desktop..i lost the Intel Pentium HT inside sticker..and the Designed for Windows XP is on my monitor

Is it an unwritten law that the stickers (processor & OS, in my case) MUST be adhered CROOKED??? Is bugs the crap out of me....seen it from HP, Dell and Toshiba!

vinceboiii Animals are friends, not food.
you sit on the floor? lol plus i'd keep on the stickers something like that, like you said, it looks better, its not too plain + i'd save you the wear that you might cause on the palm rest ;p

Nah, i have a desk... I found those pics on internet... I couldn't post one of my own cuz i didn't had any at that moment... I posted one in the "show your computer room" long ago, before i moved out, and actually after looking on internet i found is on page 40
-
Thats my laptop and thats how it looks at me.. At first there was one single nvidia sticker but i instaremoved that. I hate stickers.. -
Erm. I don't think the x205 is ugly at all but well that's my taste (and several ppl's who come and say, wow those speakers look great... Same to the lid
)...
I actually find yours too "plain and simple"...
-
well if they have those advertising sticker that is very easy to remove. i clean them up. if its hard to remove i wont bother.
i leave all the processor, graphic, OS sticker on. they dont distract me, and pulling them out causes more trouble, the glue they use is very strong and stubborn.
i think i take the x205 rather than your notebook rebdk
joseperez, ill be really really tempted for removing those advert sticker (the blue one on the lid and the fire one on palmrest) but i suppose the palmrest one seems to be protecting it from sweat and dirt. -
I keep the Intel/AMD, ATi/nVidia stickers, Windows stickers on. All other stickers go.
Though I do want to add a few of my own. Like a Tux sticker. -
Well, mine only came with an nVidia sticker and a Centrino Duo sticker. Kept both of them. If I had anything else (Windows sticker, and all those annoying ones you get from off the shelf notebooks), I would remove them before booting up. However, stickers that show what's inside, I'll keep.
-
No, no stickers. Its all black and there this red, green and blue alien. They need to be gone.
-
i only keep the logo stickers, like the intel atom on my eee or the centrino, ati, whatever on my gateway the rest i rip off
-
Looks like I may need to on one of mine..it's turning sideways
And, lifting a bitlol.

I leave the MS and the manufacturer stickers on the bottom; they have numbers I may need.
All those ugly little advertisements stickers on top are removed as soon as the PC boots the first time and I am reasonably sure it is not going right back. -
I leave the NVidia, Intel, Dolby and Vista stickers, which are all together in a little cluster and about the size of a thumbprint each.
My friend just got one and refuses to remove the in-store specsheet/advertisement that covers her entire palmrest... Looks ridiculous, but then it's her choice XD -
I remove all of it

1) The ones that are big and right under your palms, mostly with the computers characteristics and such
I like stickers but not much so I removed the ones mentioned above. -

-
im replacing the sticker on my inspiron 9400
i took of the intel core 2 duo inside sticker and ordered an intel core i7 sticker from ebay for it
its going to look pretty cool -
Dammit OCD. My new laptop's warranty seals are stuck on crooked.. and same for the Centrino 2, nVidia and Vista stickers.
The only thing that was straight was the system specs sticker, but that's gone now since I will be installing more RAM.
Do you remove the stickers of new laptops? Which stickers? All?
