I used a decal to turn my macbook pink and I seem to be getting a lot of glances...is it really that weird!?
 
Nope, and I doubt people are going to steal it.

I'm all for taking out a can of pink spray paint and painting your personal tools at work pink -- just to stop the manly men from even thinking of stealing them.

Plus, this has always been my advice to people when they whine about people stealing their electronics. "Paint it pink..."
 
My case is opalescent pink. Welcome to the wonderful world of gender stereotypes!
 
Could you post a picture? I would like to see it... I don't feel anything weird about that...
 
I'm not sure how pink is pink, but I guess it would get some looks. Perhaps the people looking are drawn to the color? :)
 
I've always liked pink, but I guess I'm too shy to carry anything of that color, although I did wear pink shirts when I was a kid in the 60's (they were popular back then). I really liked the pink RAZR phone when it came out, but ended up getting a black one.
 
Maybe it's a Mac thing. Everyone I know who hates Apple Computers also would never be caught dead in pink.

On a more serious note, I see nothing wrong with it, but I'm secure in my love for women. People are just too judgmental these days. :confused:
 
doesn't appeal to me.

Killing the male lust for electronics is a prime factor in keeping it from getting stolen.

An likely in the future, with a few Barbie stickers, he can foist the machine off on a mother looking for a gift for the screaming brat.

Completely correct. Try digging up the "White MacBook for guys?" thread.
 
we are in 2007 guys can use ANY COLORS!!!!


And unfortunately do, whether or not it looks good on them.

salmon, pink, and fuscia are the new frat uniform. I'll stick with black, white, and earth tones, thanks.

Would The Doctor wear pink? No.
 
just wanted to say sorry guys, didn't mean for anyone to take offense to my last comment that got me banned.
 
I think that pink is more of a feminine color but my CC coach has pink Thursdays where he wears a pink shirt.

Pink means Pussie!:D:D
