Bling MacBook Pro; Diamonds and Gold Included

The MacBook Pro: Pimp Edition has finally arrived! If mods are your thing, particularly the high-dollar flashy ones, you're really going to dig this. After all, why not dip your Mac into a pool of gold and diamonds?

So what exactly are you getting here? It's not those knock-off diamonds, of that you can be sure (although the knock-off diamonds are an option). For somewhere around eight grand [$7,000-$8,000], you can snag a package including the computer itself, the 24-carat gold casing, and about 3 carats in diamonds to fill in your Apple logo.

If that doesn't quite fit into your budget, yet your heart aches for a senselessly blingy MacBook, you still have options. That casing can be purchased alone for more like $1,500. Also, as I mentioned briefly before, you have the option of selecting fake diamonds (AKA cubic zirconia). In that case, you'll get the entire package at $5,500 or so.

Apparently, the pimped-out mod adds nearly no weight [merely ounces], which is all in the gems. On that note, the Apple logo can be replaced with any filler of your choice.

There's really no point here, and probably no demand for such a mechanism, but it's amusing nonetheless. Bragging rights, I imagine, would be endless. We have Computer Choppers to thank for the mod.
