Diamond Encrusted Gold MacBook Pro

Posted on 09 October 2007 by Mark Knowles

Who on earth could possibly want a diamond Encrusted Apple-logoed, gold-plated MacBook Pro? Me, me, me! I hear you cry. Me too I’m afraid. One look at these photos persuaded me it’s the only way to go. The Apple logo is made from diamonds and the entire thing is gold plated with a hand-painted color matched keyboard. I want one so bad it’s almost painful. I’m not so sure I’d be comfortable using it in public, but what the hey!I dread to think how much one of these things costs, but Computer Choppers in Oregon will be happy to quote you a price. They will also quote for sapphires, platinum or whatever else takes your fancy.

They seem a little worried about Apple suing them for reproducing their logo, but I don’t think it’s a major concern.

Well, at least that solves my usual problem of what I want for Christmas, it’s no competition this year, a 24-karat MacBook Pro. Easy. Let’s see if I can persuade my wife it’s a good investment. If any one has any suggestions as to the logic I could use to achieve that goal, please leave me a comment, because I don’t think, “If you really loved me, you would buy me one,” is going to fly this time. Just look at these photos, and tell me you don’t want one.

    Oh my goodness…I’m a PC user and I already thought the Macbook Pro was sexy. This is absolutely irresistible; it’s happiness incarnate.

    Wow. I would be afraid to use this in public myself. This would cause quite a scene! I wouldn’t mind having one though. Will they do Platinum too? That’d be interesting to see…

    I actually think this thing is waaaay to much. This thing serves absolutely no purpose other than tell people you spent waaaay to much money on a computer, and there is a lot of other places the money for this thing could go. However if it makes you happy that is what matters LOL

    But admited for a style statement it soooo rocks!

  4. Mark Knowles Says:

    Apparently, they will do whatever you want. For a price. Anyone have any idea how much this one costs?

  5. Mark Knowles Says:

    But Grizz,

    That’s all very well, but how does it help me persuade my wife to let me have one.

    Who’s side are you on anyway?

  6. TheGrizz Says:

    LOL I don’t choose sides when it involves husbands and wives, but if you want it man go for it!
