I am not going into the usual ad hominem attacks other slashdotters have resorted to regarding insecurities and compensations but why is white not a manly color to you. A lot of geeks these days are toting white Macbooks (if they haven't replaced it yet with the new generation) and I don't see them insecure about the color.
The only reason why I have the black version of the MSI Wind is that white is a tough color to keep clean, especially with my hyperhidrosis, but other than that I do not have problems with it.
