Gadgets, gizmos, and tools to help make you more productive in business

I just came from the launch of HP's new line of notebooks. What struck me was when the product manager was talking about how they came about designing the new line of Presarios and Pavilions.

Apparently user survey says that in terms of aesthetics, contrasting colors are a big factor to consider in notebooks, which was a little weird to me because the new line had a sleek black finish on the outside and a silver finish on the inside.
