Plastic is great, until your laptop falls and the plastic shell shatters. That's the weakness of plastic - it's brittle. I have a ten year old macbook with a dinged aluminium chassis. The structure of the shell is still intact despite a few falls.
- p_ing 7mo agoNot all plastics are brittle, even after time. It is highly dependent on the plastic used.
- eldaisfish 7mo agook, now please explain whether any plastic is more or less brittle than aluminium.
- p_ing 7mo agoIt's not. That being said, aluminum will suffer from dents and scratches. Every material is a trade off. You're not going to pull a "gotcha" comment, here.
