black macbook pro?

do you think there will ever be a black macbook pro?
would you guys like it

 

You can get a custom coloured MBP at colorware. So the Black exits

 

yes i know u can get from coloware but i meant with orginal black keyboard as well

 

oooh, that would be nice. But meh. I like the Aluminum colour of the MBP.

Though it would look cool if it was the same colour as the Asus W3J.

 

fabarati , black is winning by far!!!!!!!!!!

 

I actually haven't voted... Hmm, maybe I should.

 

fabarati c'mon man u know u wanna choose black lol

 

guys do you know if any of the apple displays plug into anyother laptop or desktop?
and also do they have internal speakers and are they good?

thx

 

Apple displays plug into other computers, as the use standard ports. They are fairly good, though they lack settings. They don't have internal speakers, and you don't want that anyways, as those suck.

 

cheutu, your questions are good, but why not make a new topic for them since they are unrelated to this topic? Thanks.

 

so i gotta get external speakers for it?

 

yeah. But thats what you wanna do in anycase, as internal speakers aren't good.

 

fabarati, hey thxx man u got the clever people's choice the "black"
respect!

 

I'd like it to be the Colour of an Asus W3J

 

why u like silver so much well jus get the asus then

 

It's not silver. It's kindof a Gunmetall grey. And it's a discontinued model-

 

well u can get gunmetal color for $1000 or bit more for just the paint from voodoopc

 

Urgh, Why buy from VoodooPc when the EXACT same computer is available elsewhere (and not just specs, but the same exact laptop)

 

u wanted gun metal didnt u

 

True.... Meh, I'm happy with my present laptops (see the sig)

 

Aluminum FTW!

 

768GB RAM lol?

 

Yeah, I have a SUPER powerbook 12".

 

i will buy all that ram!

 

Won't fit in a black Macbook pro.

 

yeh but macbook pro is bigger than ur power book!

 

Exactly. ninjatext

 

fabarati g2g cya sometime

 

RIght. Come visit me in The Random tread in the Off Topic Forum.

I still think that the MBP would look cooler in the Asus W3J coloue-scheme

 

i g2g dude need to watch film

 

I wouldn't mind a black MBP. But not in the style of the black MacBook, more in the style of MBP's aluminum but in black.

 

If there was a black macbook pro, I would have bought it.
I personally don't like the aluminum (which is too bad, considering apple is turning a lot into aluminum), and I would have chosen the macbook, but in the end, the black macbook looked a lot nicer to me, so I got it.

And I agree with Sam, a black macbook pro, in the style of the macbook pro aluminum.

 

The best way to color aluminum is to anodize it. This is expensive, and it can still scratch. I like the bare aluminum because it wears well, even with a lot of scratches. A scratched up black Macbook Pro would look horrible.

 

Ken's got a good point there... but either way, I still think a black MBP would sell quite well.

 

Hell yeah! I would love to have a glossy piano black Macbook Pro with my engraved name.

 

I wonder if an anodized MBP would look good. I'm not sure it would fit the styilng of the MBP.

 

I don't know why people keep suggesting paintwork by Colorware. It sucks IMHO. If they did the keyboard as well, that would be something, but black with grey keyboard sucks.

Is it so hard to paint the keyboard as well, or what?

 

We don't recomend it. We mere say that it exists.

 

I didn't say you recommend it. But every time someone opens a topic or brings the sentence "why don't they make a black whatever" everyone suggests Colorware.

 

Because that's the option that exists. I think they're ugly as well. But until Apple releases a Blackbook Pro, this will be the only(?) option.

 

any ideas of a new mbp which will come out in black

 

daily bump

 

We have no idea...the only ones who will know for sure are Apple employees. And I'm not one , and as far as I know (- looks around suspiciously -) no forum member here is either.

 

nope.... i think the people at apple are color blind... they hired external help to get the nano in colors

 

The MBP IS anodized aluminum. It's been the same way since the original 17" Powerbook. It's not bare aluminum.

 

It's not a dyed anodizing though, which is what Fabrati is referring to.

 

Oh. Well I agree with everyone else here, I would love to see a black MBP at Macworld, if so I am buying on that day.

 

I vote only for a Carbon Fiber MacBook Pro, Formula 1 grade or Aircraft grade carbon fiber, all dry carbon, 1x1 perfect weave, beautiful carbon fiber, even every single key, made of carbon.

if they made that, I would sell my MBP right now to replace it.

 

i want it like the alienware m9750 kinda black

 

I had a dark gray/gun metal colored DELL Inspiron 8600c and the color was nothing special. Black is dead common, everything from the cheap $300 laptops at Wal-Mart to the overpriced Alienware can come in black.

I prefer the alluminum silver that the MacBook Pro comes in. While I wouldn't recommend ColorWare, you can always buy shells for the MacBook Pro that change it's outside appearance. I use a dark blue shell, so when my MBP is closed it looks very distinct. While it's open, I'm too busy looking at the screen to notice the silver keys (which have a transparent blue cover from iSkin) or the silver palm rests. Best of all, the shell provides protection. So no dings in my aluminum.
