I was at Best Buy today searching for a laptop and saw this advertised on the front of the building. I searched inside and could not find it in this pink color, figured it was out of stock so I looked it up and cannot find the pink surface laptop or surface pro anywhere. Is this a mistake on their part and this computer doesn’t exist? Maybe the put the sign up too soon? I’m very interested in this pink version, so please let me know!!!

I ordered the Surface Laptop 3 on Saturday thinking, "either of the Alcantara cases will stain and I don't wanna wash my hands every time I use the machine, so I'll go with a metal case. Black will show dust really easy an any scratch will be super noticeable, Platinum is too Macbook aluminum ... I'll go with Sandstone!"
I hear "Sandstone" and I think a kinda mix between grey and brown, closer to tan, almost orange but not quite there.
It arrived today, and ... it's pink! WHAT!?
It's not a bright, vibrant bubblegum pink and it's not pink like this special "Blush" casing for the Surface Laptop 2 but it's definitely a "for girls" pink.
No, this is not what I wanted or expected! Why are the pictures of Sandstone on Microsoft's website look so much closer to an off-tan or almost grey?
So, I have to return this, I can't go forward having just spent over $1000 on a pink laptop! Is the "Platinum" version actually a "Macbook" aluminum or more like a driftwood grey? My trust in the pictures on Microsoft's website are now kind of out the window and I need to figure out how to return this thing.
Maybe this thread can serve as a warning to others but suffice to say, I'm pretty disappointed right now.
