This is serious protection!  Looks like some military grade case!

The new iMCruzer Apple iMac Carrying Case is all set to become indispensable among Apple iMac users who have to carry this slick desktop with them to every possible location on earth. The ingeniously designed Carrying Case from Pelican is not only indestructible but also airtight, watertight with foam interior that protects the Apple iMac 20 and 24-inch computer with its aluminum keyboard and mouse from the jerk and shock of moving on any road.

Macbook Air Bling With Gold And Swarovski Crystal

Ok when are we gonna stop making our geek box with all the bling??

macbook air golden age
True luxury addicts need look no further than Bling My Thing’s new “Golden Age” creation. Unveiled at CeBIT 2008, “Golden Age” is a Macbook Air decked in 12,000 Swarovski crystals. The crystals are even more shiny than usual thanks to a coating of 24k gold applied under each crystal. The translucence of the crystals allows for true layered luxury. Each “Golden Age” takes a week to construct since each and every crystal is hand-applied, so only 20 of these beauties exist, one of which will be for sale at Selfridges, Oxford Street, on March 18th. That is if you can muster up the £20,000 ($39,750) price tag for the mega-bling.

Massive Music Collection Worth $50 Million on eBay

This is just INSANE!! I’ve seen a whole store with less CD’s then what this guy’s got!

massive music collection
Dedicated to their music collection for the last 50 years, a collector has listed his massive music collection on eBay. How much music do you need in your collection to deem it “massive”? Try 3 million vinyl records and more than 300,000 CD’s.

From Thomas Edison to American Idol, this is the complete history of the music that shaped and defined five generations. 3 million records and 300,000 CDs containing more than 6 million song titles. It’s the undisputed largest collection of recorded music in the world. About half of the recordings are new and never played, and every genre of 20th century music is represented. There are countless rare recordings worth hundreds, or even thousands of dollars each on the collectibles market. Organized and cataloged, the collection is meticulously maintained and housed in a climate-controlled warehouse.

The bidding for the complete collection starts at $3 million, but that number is surely to jump up quick since the estimated value of the collection is a staggering $50 million.

Bensley’s Skull and Crossbones

oscar gift pack main

There can be only winner in any competition, but everyone wins at the Oscars. The fact that one is nominated for the prestigious award is a big deal by itself. While the winners take away the trophy, the non-winners don’t go empty handed. They are given a bag of limited edition goodies specially made for the Oscars. One of the most expensive products in the “Everybody Wins at the Oscars” Gift Bag is the limited edition Bensle’s Skull & Crossbones from Gothic Dog. Cast in 14kt yellow gold to capture the spirit of Oscar, the limited edition charm is encrusted with pavé diamonds in the skull’s eyes and has a pear-shaped diamond solitaire for the nose. The $2150 charm will be presented to the nominees in a custom-designed box, which is hand-finished, and features a protective velvet veil on the interior and push-button clasp closure on the exterior. Like I said, everyone is a winner at the Oscars and why not, they deserve to be too.
