10-inch Acer Aspire One Officially Launched - Pink is Not Available

Acer has recently released the 10-inch version of Aspire One netbook, AOD150, in the U.S.

Acer provide a few color options for their new 10-inch Aspire One, but unfortunately pink is not one of them (there's a ruby red version though which might be of interest for pink laptop lovers).


The specs for the Aspire One AOD150 are as follows:

• 10.1-inch 1024×600 Acer CrystalBrite TFT LCD display
• Intel Atom N270 1.6GHz processor
• 1GB RAM

And as usual, Laptop Magazine has got an early review on the new 10-inch machine from Acer. According to them, the Aspire One AOD150 is slim, stylish, and comes with great performance and battery life. If not because of the keyboard and touchpad layout, it's almost comparable to the Samsung NC10 and the new Asus Eee PC 1000HE... and it beats the other two in terms of price ($349.99). Overall, Laptop Magazine gave it a rating of 4 out of 5.

The Acer Aspire One AOD150 appears to be another great netbook that can be listed in our best netbook list. It's unfortunate that it's currently not available in pink, but we believe sooner or later, Acer will release a pink version, just its 8.9-inch predecessor.

Pink MacBook

If you try to look for pink MacBook directly from the Apple's store, you will be disappointed -- because Apple does not currently offer pink color option for their laptop products, be it MacBook, MacBook Pro, or MacBook Air. But if you really like your MacBook to be in pink, here are a few ways that you can "create" it on your own.

The best way of creating your own pink Macbook is by sending it to Colorware, a company which provide the service of altering the color of existing products. All Apple laptops, including MacBook, MacBook Pro and MacBook Air can be sent to the company for re-coloring. Their proprietary color coating system is scratch resistant, and they provide quite a number of color variety to choose from. The only drawback is that the price is quite expensive. It will cost $450 for MacBook & MacBook Pro; and $500 for MacBook Air for re-coloring. You can also directly order a brand new MacBook through them, which they will then apply your selection color before sending it to you. For more details, check out the company's website.


If Colorware is too expensive, another way to create your own pink MacBook is by using pink laptop case. There are quite a number of pink laptop case available for the the MacBook such as the See-Thru case from Speck, and the Hardshell case from Incase. Not only they are cheaper than Colorware, they provide protection to your MacBook in a pretty pink shade.

And finally, the least expensive way of shading your Macbook in pink is by using pink laptop skin. The advantage of using laptop skin is that there's a wide variety of skin design to choose from. They can even look greater than a pink laptop in plain color.. and you can change a new look to your MacBook from time to time, just by replacing the laptop skin.

So here you have it -- three ways of making your own pink MacBook. Let's hope that Apple will make MacBook to be available in pink some day, so that we don't have to "create" it on our own!
