The answer has to do with how notorious this color became over the last decade among female laptop buyers.
And what triggered it?
Probably the “Legally Blonde” movie, released in 2001. This movie soon became so successful and it’s fandom from all over the world grew so much that the main actresses pink laptop was an instant hit!
The other reason might’ve been the dullness of the laptops from back then. People yearned for something different, some novelty to appear and it just happened that pink was the first color being used for a laptop computer.
And just think how powerful this color is; pink is happiness, the pink ribbon is an international symbol of hope in the fight against breast cancer, even in Japan, the pink sakura is worshiped for its ephemeral beauty. So why not use a warm color with so many significances on a device we perceive as cold!
And again…why pink?
Plain and simple, its popularity has all to do with the huge demand for pink. A few years ago computers and laptops were frequently used only by the male population. It’s not a discriminating statement, but a fact. Since that time, female counterparts gained leading positions but they also wanted to make a firm statement about it. This may be one of the reasons for the pink laptop popularity.
Popular computer companies focused on making pink laptops are Dell, Sony and Asus. The CR Series from Sony are a bit more popular than the rest and the Vaio model comes in seven shades of pink, appreciated by the female public. Asus offers only 5 shades of pink while Dell’s Inspiration model only has a flamingo pink. It is worth mentioning some of the best pink laptops out there like Pink Toshiba NB205, the price and features being perfectly balanced, ASUS 1001P, stylish and with a bigger battery and standard keyboard, the pink Sony Vaio W, a bit expensive but deserves every penny, and the list goes on.
We should praise Dell’s worthy fund raising campaign for fighting against breast cancer disease, by donating five dollars from the price of every pink laptop they sale.
When choosing a pink laptop you should pay attention to its characteristics and see if they match your needs. Just for a small example, if you like leaving your nails long you have to choose a notebook or a laptop with a bigger keyboard so you won’t feel uncomfortable while typing.
If you made up your mind about what pink laptop you want then it’s a must to add some accessories. Fancy, feminine pink laptops are all about features and accessories: a pink bag, comes in all different shape and sizes, made of fabric or leather, so it would perfectly fit your image, pink notebook cases, pink skins (you have a pink computer so why not add a rose pattern skin?), pink laptop backpacks, just perfect for kids but not only.
And if you are deep into the pink mania you don’t have to worry because there are tons of items that would match with your computer or you pink laptop.
Just pay attention to all the details and you might end up with one of the best pink laptops ever, that is, if you are lucky enough! Good luck with that!
