Personalising my MacBooK Pro

nadeem.shabir | | Sunday, March 9th, 2008

Rob has been telling me for ages to personalise my Mac somehow ever since he put some Le Manns stripes on his – which look really cool. I finally gave in and here’s what I’ve done … click the image to enlarge:

I chose the dragon because in both Chinese and Japanese mythology they represent celestial and terrestrial power, wisdom and strength … but mostly because it looks cool ;-) and kind of works wrapped around the Apple logo.

Yin and Yang represent a unity of opposites. A friend of mine was joking today that I had a lot of that going on, she was right … and so it seemed apt.

Finally my VirtualChaos Logo, I just had to get the ‘fairy’ on it somehow ;-)

  1. It’s interesting that no-one seems to customise their D{e|u}ll machines.

    I bet Rob only said that so he doesn’t end up taking the wrong one home!

  4. All my suspisions are now fully realised with your choice of logo and colour (it kinda looks pinkish).

    Have a happy (

  5. Alan is right. It is very ‘pinkish’ but more interesting is the fairy in pink! The true meaning behing this is?

    Have i really missed something all these years?

  7. I like the dragon. Not so sure about the choice of pink & not so sure about the yin\yang in pink. Maybe a little pink heart or flower would’ve fit the theme better?
    Didn’t really notice the fairy. Well spotted. I’m a bit confused about the message you are trying to send by integrating a pink fairy AND the quake logo into “virtualchaos”.

    Nerdy but gay?
    Online fragger but a bit of a wuss?
    Macho yet tender?
