if Apple’s impressively-specified, impressively-priced MacBook Pro just isn’t quite expensive enough for you fear not;
a solution is at hand. Oregon-based case modification experts Computer Choppers have just announced that they
will be offering a 24-carat gold plating service for the world-beating laptop for well-heeled customers later this year.
The modification is expected to add something in the region of £780 to the purchase price of a standard aluminium-skinned model.
For extra bling power buyers will be able to specify a diamond or sapphire-encrusted Apple logo although, keen
as they are to avoid a stern letter from Apple's lawyers, Computer Choppers make it clear that they will be treating
any request to modify or enhance the famous logo on a 'case-by-case basis'.
