Customize your laptop design with Sharp

Pimpedlaptop_1 We’re not quite nerdy enough to have our laptop spiffed out with the AdFreak logo, but it’s nice to know we could. Sharp is offering customers who order new notebooks a chance to add graphic designs to the lids, courtesy of Laptop Design USA. “Since jewelry was invented thousands of years ago, customization has been a way of life,” Sharp’s marketing director says in one of the sillier press-release quotes we’ve read in some time. Since this initiative involves sprucing up otherwise dull-looking products, it also comes with the requisite and tiresome “Pimp the Laptop” contest and sweepstakes. Link via Dexigner.

It doesn't mean I am going to buy a Sharp laptop soon though. :-)

yes, please. I'd like to spend a couple hundred extra for something that that stickers have done to lunch boxes for decades.
