Jan 31 2008Buy This Computer And I Will Hunt You Down
Zeus Computers, which I'm pretty sure was a company set up to steal money from stupid rich people, is selling two ridiculously priced ridiculous computers. The first one is platinum and is studded with diamonds to resemble constellations. It is stupid and costs about $750,000. The second computer, priced at a modest $560,000 is gold with diamond accents. What kind of computer bang do you get for that buck?
Intel’s 3GHz E6850 Core 2 Duo CPU, 2GB of DDR 2 memory and a whopping 1TB hard drive. Zeus clearly hasn’t made its mind up over which format will win the HD war, so it includes a dual Blu-ray/HD DVD drive. The PC runs on Windows Vista, Ultimate edition of course, and ships with a 24in 1920 x 1200 resolution monitor.
Pretty impressive huh? Nope, it's not. I swear if anybody buys one of these I will hack the company's database, get the customer's information, hunt them down and steal their computer. Then I'll do something sensible with the machine, like melt it down and make a wicked set of grillz. Then I can finally make the video for my rap song. It's called I Love Dem Gadget N Gizmo Hoes.
Is this the world's most expensive desktop PC? [registerhardware]
Thanks to mastermindunknown, who doesn't know whose plan this was, for the tip

Man, you'd think that for that much money, they'd get better specs. DDR 2 memory? When pentium supports up to DDR3 1800. Core 2 duo, and only 3GHz? Damn, My $850 laptop came with that. Only a single hard drive and only a single TB? I'd fill that bitch up with six to eight TB HD's. No word on the video card, so it must be crap.
Clearly they're marketing an "internet and peripheral" computer to people who let others into their offices to show stuff off (and now they can buy this and show this off. Please...honestly for $750k, I'd get me a Porsche Carrera GT, get me an electric car, buy a house, and have enough left over to build myself an amazing rig...
To make it shiny, I could even go the extra mile and do something to the case, like the easy way: cover it in aluminum foil. Or the more creative way: get chrome paint (like the type they use for model cars), and airbrush the thing...you can even draw constellations or whatever your little heart desires.
This is so retarded. Writer: If you find out who bought this, I don't care if it's Chuck Norris (though I'm sure he has better sense), I'll go with you and we can steal their pc and also tie them to railroad tracks or a jet turbine (the latter, with a loose knot).

I just bought this computer, it's pretty fast for solitare and minesweeper. A0L is pretty wicked on the 24'' screen too.

I wonder how many better computers you could buy with the bling from those bitches alone.
5. Billy Avenue - January 31, 2008 3:51 PM
you could buy at least 2 computers, with that bling.

Every black person who can afford this will eventually mount theirs in their blinged out ghetto fabulous SUVs. Rad.

These compy's are straight outta Trumps wet dream. Golden and disgusting.

Lol wow what a piece of $hit. For that money they could have at least made it modular so you could pull the guts out and easily swap in a new system a couple years from now. And it should come with a lifetime supply of hookers.
