If only I'd have known about this two weeks ago before I got my MBP. I would totally have gone for that - $5,000 is a reasonable price to pay for getting rid of the silvery colour. Yes, I hate silvery coloured things (except silver itself) that much.
Been inclined to wander... off the beaten track.
That's where there's thunder... and the wind shouts back.

I'd pay $10 for a can of flat black paint and call it a day. Don't like the silver or gold.

I've never been a fan of gold.

Visually speaking. Though bars of metal as seen in movies such as Goldfinger are cool. OK, done.

Bars of silver & gold = good
crap electroplated with silver & gold = bad

And yes, this is a dupe from a long time back. Better presentation though.

So I think I might have just seen the most horrifically tasteless item ever. I'm voting that anyone who buys one of those... things be instantly expelled from the Cult of Mac and forced to use Windows Me until the end of time. No other punishment is severe enough.
