If you’re bored with the way your laptop looks or simply want to stand out from the crowd, you can personalize it with notebook skins. This concept was first popularized in Japan and Korea in early 2000. Cellfan, for example, has a wide variety of vinyl skins for mobile devices - iPods, PDAs, cellphones, laptops and gaming consoles. The skins are printed on high-performance 3M Scotchcal automotive film. The skin sticks and re-sticks on your laptop, but does not leave any marks or residue when removed. Print quality is crisp and the skins have a clear-coat finish. Applying the skins DIY is a breeze because they are made from vinyl and can therefore stretch to fit nicely around the notebook computer. Skins for mobile devices cost $12.95 while notebook skins cost an affordable $24.95. Certain retailers like, Gadwrap in Singapore, even allows you to bring in your own pictures or photos and print them on the spot for you.
