It is hard to imagine a world without computers. Computers have come a long way from the two to four-story gadgets that used to occupy the science labs of huge research facilities and military complexes to the personal computers that adorn most offices and now over a third of all homes in the US. When the large computers were replaced by personal computers or PCs, the way the world worked changed has forever. This is because computers added precision and expertise on whatever someone did. This totally revolutionized the way products and services are rendered across the globe not to mention the speed. But the advent of personal computers was not the end of the revolution. Then came the laptops which were miniature versions of the PC created to enable mobile computing.

Laptops were to be the next apex of computer modernization. These were smaller more agile personal computers which in some cases spotted even more features than the regular PCs. Their weight was awe-inspiring and their speed breathtaking. Toshiba and Sony, the computer behemoths responsible for the laptop that we know today, worked tirelessly to shrink the laptop even further and when companies like Dell entered the fray, customization was the next big thing. Laptops are now ultra-thin and ultra-light without necessarily compromising on speed and performance. While this has been impressive, progress is being made and computers can now be customized right from a manufacturer's website. Dell used to pride itself on allowing its customers to request more memory, larger hard drives or monitor sizes but now customers can order colored laptops with pink being one of the most popular .

Pink laptops have caused quite a sensation. This is because manufacturers have capitalized on the sentimental value that people attach to color. For instance, pink is a color that arouses female sentiments. No wonder pink attachment that people, especially females have, to the color pink. That is why products that have pink as a color consistently outsell their counterparts.

Dell, the giant computer maker has been credited with pioneering the art of computer customization thus allowing customers to actually order a computer directly from the warehouse and dictate it's performance and how it looks. Dell has now been joined by other large electronics manufactures in producing custom pink laptops. This has been welcomed by many because it is a variation from the regular old black or grey dйcor that has been dominant for years. While there are many other colors to choose from when it comes to laptops, pink as a color has become the way females identify with the computer market.

Pink laptops are attractive to look at. This makes them ideal for teenagers especially females although as we said earlier, ladies are not the only ones with an affinity for pink as a color. Creators of the pink laptops had high school teens in mind. This is because high schoolers have now joined the computer revolution and their computer use mostly gravitates towards the realms of gaming and online social networking. Gamers have given laptops, especially pink laptops a demand that has been unprecedented since the advent of the pink razor phone. Now the we can expect to see more pink laptops at local electronic stores and other dealers.
