This has got to be one of the most outrageous personal computers currently in the market. Moneual showcased their golden Swarovski jewel encrusted HTPC at CES 2010--with mixed reviews, I’m sure.
The 701 Jewelry HTPC is equipped with HDMI, Blu ray, and Windows Vista Home Premium, which isn’t much for the $450,000 price tag. However, I think that perhaps the 3,500 Swarovski jewel-encrusted HTPC may still be worth its weight in gold in around 2025. I can’t wait to have a peek at Moneual’s upcoming one million-dollar PC.
