<p>A few months back, I posted an <a href="http://www.digitalhomethoughts.com/news/show/90642/decalgirl-dresses-up-the-asus-eee-pc.html">article on DecalGirl.com skins for the Asus Eee</a>. Since I was so pleased with the first set, I ordered a set for my new Aspire One. Even though the blue finish on the Aspire One is gorgeous, it is a fingerprint magnet and ends up looking pretty yucky, so I figured a DecalGirl skin would be just the ticket. I've got to say, I like this set even better than the first set. </p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1229113253.usr10.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p>Two really nice things about this set over the set for the Eee are that the decal fully covers the lid and a third decal is included with the set to cover the area between the hinges.</p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1229113261.usr10.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p>About the only thing I did not like was that even though the extra piece had cutouts for the indicator lights (upper left, above the keyboard) the decal covered the labels showing what each indicator was for. Like the previous set I reviewed, these were top notch in quality and very easy to install. My only other request would be that they make a matching desktop wallpaper available like they do for many of the handheld devices they support. You can get skins for the Aspire One and a large variety of other devices directly from <a href="http://www.decalgirl.com/">DecalGirl.com</a>.</p>
