Luxury Laptops for the Rich

Post by Yoon »

HardOCP is reporting that a company called "ego" is marketing a "luxury" laptop for the rich: :roll:

http://www.ego-lifestyle.com/

Personally, I think they look like crap. They look more like purses/man bags than a laptop. :roll: Probably vastly overpriced too, considering it's marketed towards the "rich".

I also find it funny that there are no listed specs for the "laptops", except for the fact that they run Windows XP or Vista. I guess they assume that the rich have more money than brains. :p

my how... shiny. In the comments for the article someone claims to have dug the specs out from somewhere (I couldn't find them either) and it's about what you'd expect.
All you get is that it's an AMD, with a 12.1" screen that does 1280x800, it has a Radeon XPRESS 200M, it has 1GB of memory, and an 80GB SATA drive.
lol... >.<

Well, I know nothing about how does a PC work, so I can't really say if it's a good one or a crappy one... However my artistic soul tells me that the design sucks so badly X.x" Like wtf, it's a handbag? And what's with the leather (or w/e it is) thing? OMG, I wouldn't like to have such notebook @.@
If my wish is to be granted, please bring me to you right now.

Those specs are pitiful... pretty much the specs of a $300-400 laptop. >_<
