Artsy? Or derivative?

Well, it's a damn good thing neither of you are the target consumer. Oh, and those de-worming chocolate dog treats stay in the pet store too!

Kind of cute looking, but you'd have to be a hardcore Sony fan or diva to chase after getting one, let alone a matching set. Especially with such a limited run.

These just inspire me to mod my devices with my own designs.

These look way too cool for the kind of people that post on here! lol

(it's a joke by the way)

Ghastly. Just ghastly.

Yah. They'd need to make them a lot prettier than that for me to even CONSIDER buying another Vaio. What pieces of shit they are.

The last two look pretty stylish actually. I'd buy one at the right price. Sick and tired of my laptop looking like everyone else's. But, I guess I'm just a rebel like that... =P

Pretty.

Well, prettier than silver-n-grey-coated plastic.
