    Here's a great TV spot showing what each color looks like in real life. Produced by Dell, it's about as good of an accurate representation of actual color as you'll find- except maybe for blue which I though was a bit darker than portrayed.

    WELL DONE DELL! Can't get that song outta my head now :)

    A bit of irony... doubled my money in less than a year with AAPL and used part of the proceeds to get my kick-ass Dell! Figured Steve would have liked that.

    Back to topic- I thought it was brilliant of Dell's advertising firm to show Flamingo Pink being used by a guy- portraying it as a babe magnet no less!

    Capuccino girl and the white 'Kill Bill' inspired shots were also home-runs IMO.

    Maybe we should start a poll on which color spot was best...

    Watch out Apple- you don't have a lock on the 'coolness factor' anymore... :cool:
