Seconded. I lived in Phoenix for a few years and the static was awful. Maybe OP lives in a humid place?

I think that there are a lot of aluminum Mac laptops in Phoenix (and other brands too.) Maybe some of their owners are reading this and can share their experiences with static, or the lack of.

What's in Phoenix that causes static electricity?

Low average relative humidity.
