no screen protector.
as for keyboard. do you think you actually need it? it is to protect crumbs from falling inside. if anything i would recommend shaggymac's laptop screen protector. it isn't clear. it is meant to serve as a barrier between the keys and the screen when the macbook is closed.
it is pretty neat.

All are rather unnecessary. Unless you're the type of person to eat potato chips while typing, a keyboard protector won't do anything. A better screen protector would be a simple microfiber cloth to set over the keyboard when the laptop is closed.
....which is the shaggymac accessory that i mentioned earlier.
the fear is that oils that are on the keys of the keyboard are transferred to the screen permanently. i don't think this is an issue anymore for the macbook (13") since the keys are recessed, but at the very least, they were a problem with the G4 powerbooks.
another company that makes a similar item is radtech, but people have found that the shaggymac covers a larger area than radtech.
