Who Invented This Sticky Plastic Coating?! ๐๐คฎ (Planned Obsolescence)Added:
Who on earth developed this soft-touch coating? It's clearly designed for planned obsolescence. No matter how pricey the plastic product is, they all use this material which deteriorates in two to five years at most. Take Lenovo ThinkPad Bluetooth Keyboard for example.
This thing's nearly a decade old. It's plain plastic finish is truly the way to go. Funny enough, IBM laptops were actually the first to widely roll out this soft-touch surface.
