Here’s one for you gold-obsessed Mac heads out there. Computer Choppers has hooked up a gold-plated, diamond-studded version of Apple’s popular MacBook Pro laptop machine. The Gold plating surrounds the entirety of computer, and gives your Macbook an incredible unique…shine. What about the diamonds? We’ve got you covered there, too, The customization also replaces the ~~peasant~~ standard Apple logo with something a bit more upscale, opting for a diamond encrusted number that is sure to make heads turn wherever you go. The gold plating doesn’t come cheap, clocking in at between $1200-$1500 on top of the standard computer price, plus an additional $2400 for the diamond logo, but if you’re in the market for anything this flashy, we’re guessing that money isn’t a huge obstacle.

It said “gold plated”. That usually means the gold is only a very thin layer, so probably it’s not as heavey as you think.
