Golden Apple Macbook Pro: is This Trump’s Computer?

September 28th, 2007 by: Paul Strauss


The talented case modders from Computer Choppers are currently working on a project to create a golden Apple MacBook Pro laptop. I’m not talking about a little spray paint here. This mod includes a full 24-karat gold plating of the case.

They’ve even gone so far to color-match the keyboard, then re-engrave the letters for a seamless, professional design.

The company can do the same for you, but it’ll cost ya. The estimated cost for the plating, painting and etching work will set you back between $1200 and $1500. For a bit extra, they’ll customize the Apple logo cutout with a custom design of your choice.

The first one is still a work-in-progress, but looks like it’s very close to complete. Be sure to check the Computer Choppers website to see the finished system.
