Samsung Q30 notebook, now in red for the ladies

Still not sure what it is that makes manufacturers think women will not buy gadgets unless they come in pink or red, but then again we also don't know anyone who would sling around a laptop on a shoulder strap, either, so maybe Samsung execs just hang out with a different crowd than we do. Technically, at 2.4 pounds, the Q30 may be light enough to waft along behind you, but we can't really advise that anyone test this out. And what, no fake jewels?

What happened there? Did they frame the shot so it looked normal, but then at the last second her neck grew freakishly long so that her head got cropped out?

The red actually looks pretty good on that thing. Like one of those Acer Ferraris but without the wannabe-Ferrari-prick stigma attached.

Well, I am a man and I don't understand why notebooks (or most PCs for that matter) must be in black or battleship grey or brushed aluminum. Hey, men buy red sports cars! I like this red thing...

I bought the thing and I'm a guy. I personally find the q30 damn cool, I agree with Bear above. Why do we have to buy the usual grey color? Heck no one complains about Alienware green notebooks but people find them cool instead.
So what's wrong with a red notebook? What about those guys that paint there desktop casing?
