I've borrowed somebody's old 2005-2007 mac until i get my build because my old laptop is broken. This computer is unbelievable the aluminum on the keyboard and the computer itself keeps shocking me and its really painful, i have to avoid touching the aluminum between the keyboard's plastic keys which is really annoying, and if i touch it i feel my finger "shaking" with pain. My old laptop used to shock me all the time but it wasn't as bad as this, it felt only like a very light pinch. But this damn computer feels like theres a needle going through my flesh, what do i do?? please help :S
(while typing this i got zapped over 15 times, REALLY annoying)

Seem a weird problem.
A computer shouldn't "shock you".
I suppose it's a laptop else you'll have just to change your keyboard for another one.

You can try few thing:
-ground it (if you have a lock, this would probably do the job)
-add small transparent plastic (if it's work and you really like your mac... you could think to turn in a permanent solution)
-return it/ask to fix it (I'm pretty sure Apple store will be able to fix this)

If you can't fix it, I recommend you to change your laptop for something else.
