ColorWare Stealth MacBook Pro

By Nick Mokey July 1, 2009

ColorWare Stealth MacBook Pro Fear not, nerds of the night. The black MacBook Pro has returned.

Well, sort of.

Mac madhouse ColorWare recently revealed a new version of the MacBook Pro that takes a more cloak-and-dagger approach to Apple’s bright and cheery 2009 MacBook Pros. The Custom Stealth uses the company’s own Sof*Touch coating to black out the aluminum in favor of a soft “zero gloss” finish from heel to toe. Even the screen has been modded for covert computing with a matte screen to produce less glare.

Short of the exterior specs, it’s still the MacBook Pro you know and love, with 15-inch widescreen display, 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 8GB of DDR3 RAM, a 256GB solid-state drive, and of course, a backlit keyboard.

But don’t invest in that matching black messenger bag just yet. ColorWare will produce only 10 of these lovely black beauties, and each one’s going for a cool $6,000. More information and ordering information for those who would care to roll the dice on one can be found at Colorware.

Yet, there whispers that Apple is working on something even better: its own brand of OLED display that could take the MacBook Pro to the next level. It’s still early days, and there are all sorts of different rumors flying about, but it seems that something big is definitely in the works.
