That is a fake pic (the beam was edited, and very poorly too). Not to say that there aren't true yellow-looking lasers, but none are portable, and they would cost many many thousands for puny weaklings of a laser. "Yellow" lasers, at either 593.5nm DPSS or 594.1nm HeNe, are old traffic light yellow according to Sam Goldwasser of Sam's laser FAQ, and I personally consider them orange yellow. The only pen-portable yellow in existence to my knowledge is the Rigel style that Laserglow sells for $300 (yeah, not cheap). If you are interested in one though, I am currently offering some for ~$200 I believe. There's a post about it somewhere on these forums. Good luck.
