Fashion designer vivenne tam was invited by hewlett packard to create a special edition notebook. Looking more like a ladies purse than a computer the notebook features a peony floral print on top of a red background.

The peony has a unique blend of Asian and Western cultures, ancient and modern, technology and fashion.

It was inspired by Vivienne Tam China Chic style recognized from the runways in Milan, for the Olympic Games in Beijing and represents his personal mantra to live well and be beautiful.

If you’re in the market for a different kind of laptop system - check out the Singulum laptop system.

Each Singulum system is crafted out of a single block of wood and features a keyboard made out of either ivory of 24 carat solid gold (be careful if you select the ivory as many countries including the US have a strict ban on ivory imports).

Now some of their product pictures on their website seem to infer that there’s a single piece of diamond used like a trackpoint pointer..

Bentley Motors, manufacturer of the cars used by James Bond, announced plans this week to release a brand new “luxury” laptop computer. As we initially reported, when news of the Ego Bentley first surfaced, Bentley Motors teamed up with Ego Lifestyle on the ultra high-end laptop project (Ego Lifestyle designs and sells high-end consumer electronics).

These laptops have been around since 2003, but maybe you got yourself a new Bentley and so you might want laptop constructed with the same materials. The Ego laptop, of course, can be ordered to look like your Bentley automobile. According to the company, the color options of the lacquered inside matches the car’s most popular exterior paint colors. The external panels have been trimmed with the finest selection of Bentley leather and finished with the authentic Bentley cross-over hand-stitching, designed to match exactly an individual’s particular requirements.

Running Microsoft Vista software, the laptop has a 64-bit processor and a 160GB hard drive. And Bentley being nothing if not stylish, the notebook is encircled with a white gold frame engraved with the limited edition number.

Looking more like an expensive handbag than a laptop when it’s closed, the outside of the machine is trimmed with “Bentley leather” and styled with Bentley cross-over hand stitching. Bentley also notes that the laptop has an ergonomic, integrated handle designed to “remove the need for an unattractive bag or case.”

Coming in at a whopping $19,800, only 250 of the systems, dubbed the Ego for Bentley, will be sold. Yes I know, $20,000 seems like a lot of money for a laptop computer but in case you hadn’t noticed, we’re not the type of customers to whom Bentley caters ^_^

The European luxury company Munk Bogballe has launched a hand crafted executive workstation that combines simple elegance and the finest quality materials in an unusual design.

Designed for Munk Bogballe by award winning, Danish, former Bang & Olufsen designer, Henrik Sørig Thomsen, as a work tool for accomplished individuals who appreciate and share a passion for aesthetics and quality

The housing is largely made of anodised aluminum and the underside of the workstation is covered with the finest quality of Italian aniline leather.

This Bentley laptop from Ego is hand built, with authentic Bentley cross-over hand stitching along with color schemes that match Bentley’s style.

The inside metal reflects the paint job on the outside, while the outer leather is taken right from the seats. The metal carry handle even takes inspiration from the car’s door handles.

Specs include Microsoft Vista, a 64-bit processor, and a 160GB hard drive. There are also 12 direct access keys. Available for sale later this summer at Selfridges for about £10,000 ($20,000).
