Showcase your status with a pear white [crystal studded laptop](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apple-clear-series). The [MSI](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/msi-laptops) Crystal laptop is for "nighttime" use. It doesn't glow in the dark or anything, it just looks a lot more flashy than that black laptop you carry to work. 120 crystals surround the top and a pearl white color with a pearl white mouse gives this computer real glamour. Even the flash drive is crystal studded.

You can add this to our list of [high end status laptops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultima-18). I suppose if you don't need to replae your laptop every 6 months anymore, design can become a bigger factor than processor power.
