You bought a MacBook to be different from everyone else, right? Too bad millions of other people had the same idea. Time to get personal. Speck's SeeThru laptop cover instantly customizes your notebook, transforming the stock façade from silver to apple green or hot pink. The polycarbonate plastic two-piece casing snaps onto the top and bottom of your computer, complete with perfectly aligned cutouts for your power cable, USB ports, disc drive, and Ethernet port. 74 ventilation slots on the bottom layer prevent overheating, while the four rubber footpads prevent slippage. And all you 13 and 17-inch MacBook owners shouldn’t fret; Speck offers Hard Shells that fit your computers too. — Lisa Katayama
WIRED So hot looking, it turns heads in any geek-filled location (read: the Wired office, most of San Francisco). Protects your laptop from minor nicks and hits. Once attached, there’s no need to ever take it off — unless you fancy a different color.
__TIRED __Removal is slightly tricky and scary. (Careful not to bend the screen!) Dust, grime, and cookie crumbs constantly collect in cracks between cover and laptop.
