Going, Going Green - Pimping My Macbook Pro
Last Friday night I fired an extra gig of ram into the Macbook Pro I purchased not half an hour ago from this very boutique (apologies, but I’ve got a Monty Python buzz going today). The MBP was purchased in an Apple Store!
Anyway, with the extra gig of memory bringing the count to 2GB the laptop has been restored to a zippy state offering me better handling of the likes of Garageband and other intensive applications I hold. For my next trick, I’ve decided to go green - laptop green that is and lime green more to the point. I’ve ordered myself a 15″ SeeThru Case for the Macbook Pro from Speck Products. With the case and shipping the cost comes to just over the €50 mark but I feel it gives a good opportunity to personalise the laptop and protect the shiny silver casing it lives in.
Speck offer a variety of cases for mobile phones, iPhones, iPods and other MP3 players and I only recently discovered their offering of Macbook Pro cases. The case itself is a coloured, see-through hard casing that snaps on top and bottom of the MBP, with rubber feet for the bottom as well.
Should be a nice way of standing out from the crowd (and keeping the laptop from scratching in transit).

Green is so in right now.

and I agree Michael, tis “in” right now. reckon I’ll do up a nice graphic for myself for the front of it. don’t mind so much layering something on a skin that can be removed as opposed to plastering the silver casing of the laptop in stickers…
Ooh that’s perty!
Perty like a fox…
Ok, now I’ve got a bad case of Laptop envy …
Green with envy perhaps?
Could match the colour of my now snazzy laptop…!
