    Hello all,

    I just received my new HP dv6t Quad Edition laptop today. Except....the color is supposedly "brushed aluminum" or something, but it looks PINK. Gross, I cannot stand that color. I am very very disappointed with how this turned out, since I got a fairly good deal on the laptop.

    Thus I was wondering if there are any companies that makes skins for the area outside the keyboard, since I could only find companies that make skins for the outside top cover of the laptop. I'm looking specifically for a black color.

    I paid $1000 flat for this laptop with these specs:

    • Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
    • 2nd generation Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2630QM (2 GHz, 6MB L3 Cache) with Turbo Boost up to 2.9 GHz
    • 1GB ATI Mobility Radeon(TM) HD 6570 graphics [HDMI, VGA]
    • 8GB DDR3 System Memory (2 Dimm)
    • 1TB 5400RPM Hard Drive with HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection
    • No Additional Office Software
    • No additional security software
    • 9-Cell Lithium-Ion Battery (over-sized) - Up to 10.0 hours of battery life
    • 15.6" diagonal High Definition HP BrightView LED Display (1366x768)
    • No TouchScreen (includes HP TrueVision Webcam)
    • Blu-ray player & SuperMulti DVD burner
    • Intel 802.11b/g/n WLAN
    • Backlit Keyboard with Fingerprint Reader
    • HP Home & Home Office Store in-box envelope

    Thanks!
