Grove makes a number of bamboo cases for iPhones and iPads. Now the company is introducing super-thin (.035") bamboo plates that attach to the back of unibody MacBooks of nearly any shape and size (11", 13", 15", 17").
Grove also offers laser cutouts of a wide variety of shapes that are placed directly behind the glowing Apple logo, allowing users to personalize their laptops even further. The company will even do custom engravings for orders of 10 or more, allowing companies to have their own logos etched.

I've seen these in person, and my initial impressions are all favorable. I saw one applied and removed and it pops off flawlessly. They really are thin, and they look really nice once installed. I also got to see a few of the logos in person and they are all wonderful.
The Bamboo Backs are made by Grove in-house in Portland, Oregon. They'll sell for $29 and ship in 1-2 weeks.

It's been said many times, there are no undisclosed paid posts on this site. The only difference is people seem to get offended when they don't personally find the product interesting. People didn't complain about FIFA 2012 coming to Mac or the Disney Toys integrating with iPad, because apparently they found those posts personally interesting.Why are more and more Macrumors posts sounding like blatant advertisements? Arn, are these paid placements, or have you been otherwise compensated for the inclusion of such material on the site?
You where happy enough to comment about how you'd love Shadow of the Beast in an upcoming Amiga Emulator (https://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?p=11549000&highlight=#post11549000) for iOS, when that news story could also be seen as much as an advertisement as this one.
