subject: Pink Laptops - Being Technologically Savvy While Being Fashion Forward [print this page] Ever since Elle Woods stepped on the big screen in Legally Blonde and showed off her pink laptop, pink laptops have been flying off the shelves. Laptops are no longer being used only to satisfy computing needs but can be a way to express oneself stylistically i.e. being technologically savvy while being fashion forward.
Legally Blonde's pink laptop computer may have started the trend and more companies have started manufacturing pink computers in various shades. From the look at me bright pinks to the more muted pinks that can be used professionally and otherwise. Other shades such as red are also being produced.
Pink has been a top color for the past decade and although most of those buying pink laptops are women of various ages, more and more men are jumping on this trend. If you are technologically savvy as well as a fashionista, a pink laptop is just what you need.
Although most will purchase a pink computer as a fashion accessory, there are other factors to consider since no two pink laptops are the same when deciding on the perfect laptop.
Points to Consider
The following are some of the points to consider before purchasing a laptop that is pink;
1. What will the primary use of the computer be? Is it going to run extensive software applications or will it be used for basic computer needs such as blogging, internet surfing, etc.
If is the reason is the latter, you may want to consider getting a netbook which is smaller and cheaper than a laptop and although it does not have the capability of a laptop, it will satisfy basic computing needs adequately.
2. One will need to determine the accessories that are needed when you purchases a pink laptop that include how to protect the laptop from scuffs and scratches. There are various accessories on the market to satisfy every need.
3. The prices of different laptops and why the prices vary.
4. The support that one can expect from the manufacturer.
5. Customer reviews and opinions.
Some of the well known and more popular manufacturers of these different colored laptops are Sony, Samsung, ASUS, HP, Dell and Toshiba. Of these the Sony Viao Netbooks are extremely popular as well as Asus which manufactures the popular Disney Netpal that is geared more toward children and is very kid friendly with easy to follow instructions.
These companies are recognizing that computers can be a fashion accessory and are making several adjustments besides the colors offered for the fashion forward crowd such as designing keyboards that can be easily used by women sporting longer fingernails. They are also including many other applications specific to laptops that are pink.
Since a lot of people require a laptop to be portable, the designs are becoming more and more sleeker and smaller which has led to mini laptops becoming just as popular as netbooks.
