MacBook (PRODUCT) RED already in production?


Color me crazy, but the MacBook in this music video looks a lot like it could be one of those (PRODUCT) RED MacBooks that have been rumored before. Of course, it could also just be a ColorWare job to stir up some hype - though who exactly is doing the stirring is anyone's guess. You'll know more as soon as we do.

For of those you wondering it is a colorware pc job not the color i would have done but hey and it is a macbook, also for those interested in wanted a red macbook to match the red nano colorware pc can reproduce and custom paint your laptop whatever color you want just have to provide them with a sample however it costs extra in addition to the already 450 dollar paint job. yes its expensive

Defintely Colorware. I have worked for MTV in the past and they issue some of their company computers (Powerbooks, etc.) in the Colorware red. Shooting an in house promo they would just grab the nearest machine to use.

Sorry, that's definitely a skin. The keys are white. I think I've seen this one before, too.

1) Screenshots like what you see on this computer are often worked in during post-production. This lets them create a sharper, more vibrant image on screen in the video, and it also lets them control exactly what they want to be on the screen and how it plays.

2) About the logo - this isn't the first time an Apple logo has been stripped off a product in a TV show or movie. Happens a lot. Not really sure why it goes on, but it's everywhere. Apple hardware shows up in a *lot* of productions, and this happens all the time.

It's a colorware job. This video was put out before the product (red) iPod was announced to the public.

Doesn't anyone see that the computer doesn't have the Mac logo at all? See http://users.ih.nu/bjorn/tuaw/cassie.png

It has an OS X search widget, but a Windows toolbar. Probably some kind of post production interface mockup.
