    I ordered Midnight Blue because it's not too bright as most other colors but is still different than the standard colors of most laptops.

    jet black is matte, if you like matte look then pick black

    I vote against brown because from the pictures I have seen, it looks very dark brown, mind as well get black and save $20.
    I think that the blue and ruby are both good picks on color, i personally got the blue.
    I think that the spring green is more of a femanine color, but that is just me.

    I've seen the Ruby in person, it's a pretty bright color IMO.
