You seem to be forgetting something - you're on digg. - JCSaint, on 10/11/2007, -0/+36It's not like you're not breathing in fumes from cars and trucks and god knows what else in the city every day anyway. I doubt your macbook is going to kill you.
- kpsk, on 10/11/2007, -11/+46Mediocre at best.

No it's not. - blubloblu, on 10/11/2007, -1/+29The next laptop picture in the blog ain't so pretty. http://data.tumblr.com/2457027_500.jpg
- timko, on 10/11/2007, -2/+30What do you think I'm doing to your notebook right now?
- DaffyDuck, on 10/11/2007, -1/+27No, it's a MacBook Pro.
- selrahc, on 10/11/2007, -1/+26To make it heavier. I thought everybody knew that...
- themastersb, on 10/11/2007, -6/+30Ok. Now I just need enough money to buy a Macbook and we're set.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -8/+27omg this blogger is a douche. this is a doctored pic. check out his main page: pics from front page digg stories and wait is that more pics that we've already seen on digg? buried as super ghey. get your own content and stop ripping it off here.
- Zeldafreak104, on 10/11/2007, -3/+19Looks good, but I wouldn't want that design on mine.
- carpespasm, on 10/11/2007, -1/+16/sarcasm

- Nerfdude, on 10/11/2007, -4/+15yeah, that vista tablet is pretty nice.
- Fiyerstorm, on 10/11/2007, -1/+11Oh lord, an obsessed Rosefiend
- bobcrotch, on 10/11/2007, -5/+14Man it would be hilarious to get a huge veiny hentai penis laser etched onto your buddies laptop
- phoenixrip, on 10/11/2007, -7/+16That's true beauty.... - Awesome art, on a beautifully designed canvas!
- Nerfdude, on 10/11/2007, -1/+10what's that, the crips laptop?
- thegenome, on 10/11/2007, -1/+10I actually have access to a lazer engraver at our school... but its one thing making cool patterns in plastic... but theres just something about shoving my macbook under it... I know it wont do anything... but... soooo close to screen...
- stevekh, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9i own a sign company with a couple laser engravers and this is one i did for a family member - doing the front of an ipod was a little scary at first

- Tiarlynn, on 10/11/2007, -1/+8This is from the iStyle FAQ:
Will etching my Apple product void my warranty?
No, etching is considered cosmetic rather than a modification that would change the behavior or performance of your laptop. Make Magazine documented a successful argument. - pmpk, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6The real question... (since if you are having this done to your MacBook Pro you are obviously a Mac geek who will constantly need to keep up with the latest model released):
When it comes time to sell this laptop to a friend, dealer, on ebay or craigslist, is a laser-etched laptop worth more or less money than the same machine in like-new condition? - dan4prez, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6http://www.etchamac.com/?page=samples
- gypsycoder, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6Original author on Flickr: http://flickr.com/photos/ldandersen/301812211/
- Disjunto, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5to a dealer less.... on ebay maybe more.
- silverchrysalis, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5cool but, how is a bar mitzvah a corporate event?
- grauelkimchee, on 10/11/2007, -2/+6@mikecampbell: your tin cap's on a little too tight there
maybe you've gotten a little lead poisoning yourself
i'm no expert (like you), but i'm pretty sure it causes some retardation - badnewsblair, on 10/11/2007, -3/+6Exactly. I've always loved the idea of decorating the Macbook Pro/Macbook. But all the etchings I've seen have been logos and names. I think I may have finally found some inspiration for when I get mine. Soon.
- dancenhance, on 10/11/2007, -2/+5Hahahah.
MLPFTW - fastfood15, on 10/11/2007, -2/+4that's not a very good engraving.

- tonich03, on 10/11/2007, -9/+11BLOG SPAM at it's best. This is ridiculous.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2OMG PONIES!!!
- hookshotzz, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2blog spam? it's a tumblelog... please....
- tallguy240, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2I have a friend who has the machine to do this. Not sure what he will charge but I can forward you his business contact info if you like. He owns a sign company in my small home town and can do just about whatever you want.
- kwlow, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1What do you folks think about this on a mac laptop? iStyleCustom.com did this too

Hm.. looking at their gallery, they also laser leather and denim. Pretty cool. - aiyo, on 10/18/2007, -0/+1They did it so they can differentiate their pedals from other bands during set changes: a frantic time when bands are swapping out their gear for the next band. They had some pedals stolen before, this seems to be a great way to prevent theft...
- silverchrysalis, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2gah!
/shudders at thought of someone desecrating ibook - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Paisley? Uck... no thanks.
