Which MacBook color are you choosing?

[iFitzgerald]

I'm not getting one at all, and I don't like the gold one but...GOLD IS BEST!

But if I did get one...Space Gray

Thanks, Mod.

I wish Space Gray was actually black. I know black aluminum is difficult to produce because they're so susceptible to scratches.

The gold looks nice. But I feel like its meant for people who either have a gold $ around their neck or "JUICY" written on their ass.

Nothing against those people but as a white male I feel like I would seem like I'm reaching for something I'm not.

So space grey it is!

Life's too short to live in fear of what other people might think of you.

Hi,

I decided to buy the new MacBook just for the sheer portability. However, I just can't decide which color to choose! They all look awesome. Which is your favorite?

My wife is getting the pink one.

Exactly, The first gen Macbook should be fairly rare given its pricing of upwards $1,300+ for a computer with the performance of a $199 Netbook. But Playa's gonna play! They be struttin that Gold Macpad all through the Starbucks... Everyone else is going to want the much anticipated Space Gray and will be puttin' a clear case on it.

I would get the Gold one. But wish they would have gone traditional Macbook white! (A nice Satin White like the original eee netbook)

 

[pasadena]

I haven't decided yet, I'll wait until I can see them IRL. The only sure thing is thet I'm not getting a gold one in a million years.

I'd like a copper colored Macbook

I'd soooooooo love a copper MacBook.

My MacBook Pro is only a few months old, but I think I'll ditch it and get a gold MacBook.

Why is it that I cant see the pole in the mobile version?

 

[Nicky G]

I will most likely get gold. I think it's slick (and way better than the gold iDevices, with the white fronts).

But it also happens to be my last name, so people will actually give me crap for NOT getting the gold one.

You can't see any polls in the mobile version of MacRumors. I use the mobile version quite a lot when I'm not at home and the polls never show up.

The keyboard contrast on the Gold one is excellent, whereas it just blends too much into Space Gray.

PINK wasn't on the list! It will also be available in PINK soon! Ming-Chi Kuo said so...

The"Gold" Looks Pink to me (and thats what my wife said. I am not going to argue with here. Shes a big Susan G Koman race for cure person. So... Pink it is!

 

[leolatarc]

Gold all day.

 

[uiop.]

Gold, because I think it's beautifully unique and don't generally give a _____ about what people think about me.

 

[Serban]

Much appreciated. Do you think the space gray MacBook will scratch and chip easily, just like many have been experiencing with their space gray Apple products?

That said, I bet the space gray will sell out fast

maybe you are confusing, but the black-slate iphone5 had that problem and not the space grey.
So it's ok space grey

I am to be honest, I wonder if the manufacturing process is any different with apply the space gray then the old fashioned aluminum color.

 

[Elise]

The gold isn't as bad as I thought, it is a very muted, soft colour and not a harsh tone as I first thought. I need to see it for myself.

 

[Mcdevidr]

It's gold all the way for me. I don't care how cool people will think I am. Its like that evil character from Austin powers.

"I love gold"

I actually suspect even silver machines have been anodized all these years for consistency?

 

[thomasdangit]

Finally decided! Space gray definitely looks the best. However, I do wonder whether or not the space gray finish will hold up as well as the silver.

 

[jm5309]

Space gray, for sure.

 

[newellj]

I'm far from convinced that I'll be buying one of these, but if I do, I guarantee it'll be standard silver aluminum. I don't need to be rubbing the fact that I just bought one of these things in everyone's faces.

Having said that, I bet the gold is a stunner.

I think I've changed my mind. Gold is my favorite with black being my second favorite option. I have a gold iPad. I usually don't rock gold so hard...but I just like it alot more now.

Gold is a warm, more optimistic color than silver or black. I like old synthesizers that have wood panels. It's the closest color to nature that Apple has made in aluminum.
