discover your ego

can't decide between a laptop or an apple macbook? how about a tulip ego?

a friend sent me a link to this dutch-brand tulip ego website. pretty interesting notebook designs up there. the machine itself comes with an integrated carrying-handle so you can skip the laptop bag and just show it off in your hands as you travel - looks like one of those classy cosmetic cases :) you can even clip on extended straps by the side to sling it across your shoulders. the egos run on AMD chips, i don't really know enough to comment on it's functionality - do check out the specs. yourself... but with it's clean, sleek design (i like the idea of "sliding doors that hide connectors" at the side) and interchangeable skins & diamond studded-covers, it sure seems to be on the right track in wooing the women-crowd.


ok, i just found out how much one of these machines costs. weighing 2.6kg, each tulip ego retails at a jaw-dropping price of Euro 3,975 (ie. US$5,103.50)!! *gulp* looks like egos don't come cheap afterall (pun intended) :P
