Inspiration: Design Your Own Laptop

2007-08-31-bananalaptop.jpgWant to rebrand your laptop? Instructables has a nice, albeit a bit complicated, tutorial on how to cut a customized shape into your laptop case. It's not a perfect execution, as the finished product is a bit crude and we would have cleaned it up a bit. However, if you're looking for a project over the holiday weekend, you may want to dig out your old laptop and find someone with a laser cutter. Anyone can add a laptop sticker, but very few can be laptop artists. Let us know if you're brave enough to try this out on your own. We'd love to see your pics!
