Wow....

But would I need to dress up like this to use it?

Am I the only one that read the topic as "24 kiloton" (as in tactical nuke) laptop? :shock:

carat is abbreviated "ct." iirc :)

Well, gold is too much bling for me ... our black beauty (thinkpads) looks way better :)

I read kt as carat, but owning a 24 kiloton nuclear-powered ThinkPad would be too awesome for words, and would probably allow you to get many great discounts from Lenovo.

ct. is a measure of WEIGHT (Diamonds, etc)

kt. is a measure of "Content/purity" :

24kt= "100%" gold
18kt = ~75% gold

FWIW: 18kt and 24kt gold tend to be NICE but they are too soft (soft metal) in pure form -once you turn it into a "brick" it is a different story-..LOL

The gold surface will be scratched like crazy. You need to wear leather gloves to handles one of those babies.
