HoosbinPharteen - first off, it's not that cheap. call up - seriously, MOST will charge over $200 for a powerbook for set up / design / etc etc if they know what it is and more for design / working with crappy art. and if one IS cheaper than $100 for an ENTIRE laptop, please use them, not us.for ipods (shiny back ones) - you need to use an etchant, and again work with art, a template, etc, etc. we're doing this for $30.we're not competing on price, others can do that. we do in person etching with good art from folks who want to learn about the laser and etch their stuff in person.but right now, we're cheaper than any one else that publicly puts prices out there.

Seems like this already exists though. If anyone wants to get a laptop or ipod laser engraved already, I have seen this company does this: <a class="user" href="http://www.etchamac.com/">http://www.etchamac.com/</a> Hope that helps someone.
