Paint The New MacBook Pro In Pink With Colorware

Apple MacBook is not available in pink. The only way to get yourself a pink Macbook is either by applying pink laptop skin/case on your Macbook, or send it to Colorware for recoloring. And if you are wondering if the recoloring service of Colorware covers all Macbook models, they do.. even the latest MacBook Pro 2nd gens!


The company recently updated their website to include the re-coloring service for the new MacBook Pro 2nd generation, which includes all 3 sizes: 13-inch, 15-inch, and 17-inch. For $499, you can paint your new Macbook Pro in pink with either a solid or metallic finish. And if you are willing to spend more, you can also customize the the color of the hinge, palm rest, bottom, logo, and screen frame each with a different tone of pink color!

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!

Hoping The New MacBook In Pink

The next Apple MacBook event will be held on the coming Tuesday (14-Oct-08). There are rumors that Apple is going to announce a $800 laptop crafted from single pieces of aluminum using a laser and water jet process known by the code-name "brick".

According to 9to5Mac, the new MacBook will come in "two-tone". It will have black (or perhaps other colors) plastic outer shell while incorporating an aluminum inner frame. So far, there's no mention about whether the new MacBook will offer any other color options other than black, but we are hopping that they will release the new MacBook in pink and other attractive colors, just like the new iPod Nano!

Apple Pink Laptop

There's no pink laptop from Apple. Be it MacBook, MacBook Pro or MacBook Air, Apple does not provide pink color option for all of their laptops. But although you can't get a pink laptop directly from the Apple store, there are still a few ways to "create" your own pink MacBook.

1. Colorware


Colorware is a company that provide the service of altering the color of existing products.

You could 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.

2. Pink Laptop Case


There are quite a number of pink laptop case available for the Apple laptops such as the See-Thru case from Speck, and the Hardshell case from Incase. All of them are pretty cheap (below $50) if compare to the first option, and they provide protection to your MacBook at the same time. A great place to shop for a pink MacBook case would be Amazon store as there are customer reviews on many of the products there, which will help you to make a better choice.

3. Pink Laptop Skin


This is the most un-expensive way to create your own pink MacBook. There are quite a number of company out there that are selling laptop skins on the Internet, and the price is ranged only from $20 to $30. One disadvantage of using a laptop skin is that the Apple logo will be covered up. But if you don't mind, this is actually a good choice for all the girls who love pink color laptop.
