Custom Skin Turns MacBook Air into Paper Notebook
Posted in: Accessories and Peripherals, macbook, Today's Chili
It might not fool the dedicated (or even slightly attentive) thief, but for keeping your new 11-inch MacBook Air safe as you dash from the coffee-shop table to grab another little sachet of sugar, it might just do the job.
“It” is a plastic skin for Apple’s new ultra-portable laptop, which turns the computer into a passable facsimile of a paper notebook. The Composition Notebook Skin, designed by Flickr user Beyond the Tech, even features a cover for the MacBook’s wrist-rests that mimics lined paper – although if somebody has gotten as far as opening the lid of you Mac, it’s unlikely that this last effort will fool them.
If you think such a disguise is either effective or just plain cool, you can grab Beyond the Tech’s image files and use them to make your own. You don’t actually have to print the PNG files onto plastic or anything messy like that. You just take the files and send them off to a custom skin-maker like Zagg, which will take care of everything for you.
