I am was just considering that since apple released a special edition ipod nano, if they released a similar Macbook (done well) would you be interested?

I know the chances are slim, I just love apple and red.

For some reason, red is my least favorite color, except in cars. I'd like a cherry red VW Beetle :D

I agree, although I'm kind of surprised they don't offer the mb in a variety of colors.

I wouldn't. There are only a few colors that I'd get one in, and colorwarepc already has them.

not red, but maybe the original nintendo DS deep blue, especially if it had the same fingerprint reducing texture. :)

If it was dark red, like the colorware candy apple, then i'd be at the store before the site even came back online.

If it was red like the nanos? hellz to the no.

I like my computers to be subtle, eyecatching when you see them, sleek, and professional-looking. The [Red] Nano color works for a portable music player. Please, don't make my computer look like that. Can you imagine trying to concentrate on the screen's contents with a bright red laptop?

Its a cool idea, although I still would prefer the white. Red is better than black imo.

I would take a red Macbook. It would definitely stand out from all the people with red and white laptops ;P
