GOLD RUSH

...and I'm not talking about those coveted statuettes, although they do have a nice heft to them...

Rather, this gold rush is for the latest and greatest in tricked-out technology from Computer Choppers.  The Linn, Oregon company may be far from Tinseltown, but their 24-karat gold gadgets undoubtedly have star quality. 

Send them your laptop, I-pod, I-phone or any other gizmo in need of the Midas touch, and they will literally turn it into gold.

Want some sparkle with that?  No problem.  Computer-Choppers.com can create custom diamond or cubic zirconia logos for the top of the laptop.  The average price for a new plated MacBook Pro is $8,500 and can jump up to $20,000 depending on customization. 

In keeping with the metallic trend, all that glitters is more than gold.  Their shiny stuff comes in a variety of hues; choose from 24kt gold (yellow or white), platinum (coming in this Spring) or a range of shades in between.
