I have both a 12$ skin on a netbook from one site and was very happy with it and also a 24$ from another for my laptop which offers to put my own image/logo for 5$ more if you so desire which my friend did with his.

Then again, it costs less for me too buy a 2GB ram stick than it is to go from 512mb to 1GB so if youve got the the money to burn….enjoy.

The do it yoruself skins are easy to install and my 11 year old niece installed one by herself.
