How to Get a Colored MacBook

Unlike previous versions, Apple's 2011 MacBook only comes in white. If you are longing for the days when Apple released its iBooks in colors such as Blueberry, Tangerine or Key Lime, or you want your MacBook to look black like the initial release, or if you just want to match your personality, you can purchase a number of different colored cases to dress up your MacBook.

      Research to find a case that fits your personality. Cases are available directly from Apple's website, Apple's retail store and a number of other online and retail outlets. Speck Products offers a number of different patterned and solid color cases ranging from $50 to $60, at the time of publication. My MacBook Case's online website offers cases starting at $30.

      Purchase a form-fitting case for your MacBook. Make sure the case fits your specific MacBook model. Older MacBooks and the newer Unibody MacBooks need different size cases. Make sure you order the correct case for your screen size. Choose from the 13-inch, the 15-inch or the 17-inch models available.

      Clean your MacBook. Disconnect the power cord and use a soft, lint-free cloth to clean the outside case. Use a damp cloth, if necessary, to remove dirt or stains. Do not spray water or cleaner directly onto the MacBook.
