A nicely modded MacBook

by Dave Caolo (RSS feed) on Mar 14th, 2007



Check out this nicely modded MacBook we noticed in our Flickr pool. Included on this 'book:
  1. A See-Thru shell from Speck
  2. The keys from a black MacBook (which the owner notes eases use with Ableton Live)
  3. An Airport Card from a Mac Pro, for 11n Airport spec goodness
  4. A custom rainbow Apple logo in the lid from iColours.ca
We think it looks great, especially that cool keyboard. Well done!

iColours for Apple notebooks

by David Chartier (RSS feed) on Sep 3rd, 2006



If the white glow of the Apple logo in your notebook isn't touching your heart the same way anymore, iColours might be just the touch-up you need to rekindle your love of all Apple things that glow (of which there aren't many). These 'high quality' filters come in a wide range of colors, and as you can see from our screenshot - they're customizable. They have a decent gallery of custom designs, and they offer installation instructions for iBooks, PowerBooks and even MBs and MBPs [Update: turns out MacBook/Pro instructions are still brewing. Take a look before you place an order if you're an MB/MBP owner.]

Base price for a solid color is $3.99, including worldwide shipping. While custom designs are available, they ask that you contact them before ordering. Needless to say, installing these most likely blows any warranty you might have out of the water, but that hasn't stopped you before, right?

Thanks Jason P
