Gold MacBook Air: Just a little over the top

If the MBA isn't enough, you can now get it in gold! For those of you who are unsatisfied with the current MacBook Air (or the iPhone, iMac, MacBook Pro or iPod Classic, and who value looks and style over functionality (or in some cases a lack thereof), this mod is for you. Computer Choppers, an Oregon-based company, will take one of the previously mentioned Apple products and really pimp it out. You have the choice of five precious metals and four semi-precious metals to cover your computer in, and other add-ons such as multi-colored sapphire Apple Logos on your computer.

The main feature of their line if a 24 karat gold MacBook Air. For $5,000, you can get a base-line MBA sheathed in the shiny stuff, and for another $3,000, you can get the Apple logo on the top cover replaced by multi-colored sapphires (of course using the original Apple Logo color scheme). Other specialties include a Platinum iMac, a Rose Gold iPhone, and a Black Nickel iPod Classic.
