My new MacBook has a major fault. The edges where your wrists rest are razor sharp. On the forums this is referred to the suicide wrist feature.
There were three recommended fixes:
1. Grizzle like mad at Apple
2. Use Acetone to melt the plastic into a round edge
3. Get some very fine sand paper and round off the edges.
I chose number three. I have used a white sand paper. I used a strip and held either end and sanded while pulling it around the edge.
The result is a smooth edge although it is slightly discoloured... basically it is matt instead of glossy but you have to hold it up close to notice this.
One point to note... don't be afraid to sand hard if you have very fine paper. The plastic is very very strong.
Basically you are just adding a couple of year's wear to the edges and that is ok.
WARNING: I guess if you typed properly this would not be an issue. But many of is do not type properly.
