Get Bentley

Time to add to the pile of things branded with swanky automakers logos for that classy 'halo effect'. But this is no mere Ducati memory stick, or Ferrari aftershave.

At the British Motor Show this week Ego, Dutch maker of "luxury notebooks,"unveiled their Bentley laptop.



They say the computer features colour schemes taken directly from Bentley automobiles, and is hand-built and wrapped in custom-stitched leather. Computing is handled by a 64-bit processor with 160GB hard drive, running Microsoft Windows Vista. Now I know cock-all about PCs so I have no idea if that is a high-end machine or not, but I do know that in 6 months time it will be the computing equivalent of a Speak & Spell. And that's pretty hard to swallow when you paid £10,000 for the fucker.
