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.

Looks like a colorware job since they leave the keyboard and trackpad in the original color.

yup, I vote Colorware. That red isn't rich enough - too bright. Not like the slick iPod nano red.

I highly highly highly doubt it. This video has been out for a while and from what i can remember the mac logo is missing. I doubt apple would have this campaign leaked months before it would start.

There's no way that could be a product red macbook. This video was shot a month, maybe 2 months ago.

Notice that there is no apple logo. If apple paid them to put it in there they would show the logo. I'm sure that if apple produces a (PRODUCT) RED MacBook it will look a lot better than that. The red and white just looks corny.

#9: Have you ever noticed that screenshots on computer hardware in video and print are almost *always* placed in post production? They do it so they can make the image look a helluva lot better than it would if it were simply shot live - and so they can control exactly what's being viewed. The fact that it's running what could look like Windows (or possibly even Linux from the color scheme) is pretty inconsequential.
Let's also not forget that, technically, MacBooks can run Windows (and Linux) with the best of them these days.
May I also recommend decaf?

Yeah, tim, I noticed that too! I couldn't believe it at first, but it's unmistakably Windows...
And Mark Fleser, I thought that was strange too that there was no Apple logo, but if you go to about 53 seconds into it, I noticed there is a far-away shot where there appears to be a white logo on the back, only time that it appeared there though... Wierd incontinuity...
But overall, I agree, it's probably a colorware job.

The "Are you Over 18" confirmation button on YouTube does not work using FireFox 2.0!
Does anyone have a mirror?

I have seen red macbooks (pro) at school. With non white buttons. They have had them for weeks.

#11: Yep, you were right, you can see the Apple logo, check it out here.
I got a better version of the video, and took a screenshot.
