My Customized Laptops from Skinit.com

POSTED BY socialdude on May 28 under rankings

So those are my three skinit.com customized computers. The middle Yoda one is a Tablet PC, it’s a little old, slow and very heavy, mostly my wife and kids use it. The Battlestar Galactica one is my main laptop It’s got a big enough screen, decent memory and pretty fast, it also cost about $800 half of what the tablet PC cost. The Star Trek is my ASUS 1000 HE I use it when I travel or anywhere I don’t feel like lugging my big heavy laptop. Under real use I get about 7.5 hours of batter life … really.

So the stickers come from Skinit.com they have lots of different stock designs you can buy, but the Battlestar Galactica and Star Trek are custom designs. You upload the pictures tell it what computer and they do all the magic for you. You upload vacation pictures, pictures of your kids, your company logo anything you want. They cost about $30 – $50 and come in about a week. It’s a big sticker when you’re going to put it on have something you can smuch the airbubles out with I use a plastic wallper smoother. You can peel the sticker up and adjust it slightly. If you use a custom design it makes your laptop much more distinctive and less likely someone will steal it (if you see someone walking around with a Star Trek netbook at SMX let me know ). You can remove the sticker if you want it takes a little doing but is possible and doesn’t damage the laptop in any way.
