Only if you don’t see the subtle design cues. The color is a very nice navy blue type of color that is much more interesting than any plain black PC laptop.
Matte black / slate is my preference, but it is certainly more boring than midnight here. I usually hate blue, especially navy blue, on devices. At first I was immediately turned off from the color seeing how blue it looked online. Now I feel the deep hue on the mba only adds to the visual appeal.
