Personalize Your PowerMac With Some Skinz

January 9th, 2002 at 2:00 PM - Macworld Expo by John F. Braun

Looking back to the introduction of the original iMac, the choice of colors no doubt influenced the popularity of the machine. However, there is no way to make such a statement with a PowerMac G3 or PowerMac G4. Until now. We had a chance to speak with Doug Griffith of AppleSkinz, who were debuting their PowerMac personalization product at this weekis MacWorld Expo.

AppleSkinz are polycarbonate covers which let you add some pizzazz to your PowerMac G3 or PowerMac G4 computer. They caught our attention during our MacWorld Expo Photo Tour, where weill take a picture of anything that catches our eye. And with the variety of designs that these folks offer, weire sure youill agree that theyill catch just about anyoneis eye.

see this in person to
get a real taste of just
how cool it is

The skinz are priced from $30 to $100 a pair, with a special introductory price of $50 a pair until the end of January 2002. They attach to the case of your PowerMac with adhesive strips that keep the skinz firmly attached, but can be removed with a little effort. Plus, owners of the new iMac, as well as iBook owners, can look forward to having AppleSkinz available for their machines within the next few months.
