Moderator Johanna Posted August 14, 2008 Moderator Report Posted August 14, 2008 Got 20 grand to blow on a leather laptop? This one has the "Bentley" logo and that quilting you see on the cheap upholstery leather is supposedly "hand stitched". Ho hum. The laptop specs are mediocre (you can get a far nicer machine for >$500) but hey, it will match your car interior and shoes. And that's what it's all about, right? Who cares how it works when it looks so cool? Ugh. I'll pass on this one- I'd rather save for the Porsche. http://www.t3.com/news/t3-exclusive-ego-fo...y-laptop?=36215 Johanna Quote You cannot depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus. - Mark Twain
Members OutBackP Posted August 14, 2008 Members Report Posted August 14, 2008 Each is hand built, with authentic Bentley cross-over hand-stitching Wow I am sooo impressed, anyone know how to do the "Bentley cross-over hand stitch"? I think if I really tried hard I could make one for Rolls Royce with my special "Rolls Royce saddle stitch" Quote
ETW Grumpy Posted August 15, 2008 Report Posted August 15, 2008 Let's see, come up with something absolutely rediculous, market it to extremely rich people, charge 40 times more than it's worth.......sounds like a great business model to me. Quote
Members singteck Posted August 16, 2008 Members Report Posted August 16, 2008 Who ever that "hand-stitched" those should be fired. The stitching sure looks uneven and ugly. Or did they mean someone hand guided the leather through the sewing machine... so it's hand stitched? singteck Quote

They should be sewed for false marketing Tom Quote Confucius - Better a diamond with a flaw than a pebble without. --------------------------------------------- www.1eye1.se blogg.1eye1.se
