Sony goes green with... er... leopard skin look laptop
Apple may have completely left the planet with its nebulous, spaced-out Leopard branding, but thankfully folk who favour the fake feline look can still rely on Sony, which today rolled out a leopard-skin print laptop - the special edition 'Spotted Life' Vaio FZ.

Thinking again, it might be a good theft deterrent, who knows...
Zepto do something similar as a feature a couple of years ago?
You could even send them graphics of choice and they'd put it on the laptop for you - for a fee and a small Op' for thr Style gland removal for the user.
i notice they aren't offering on their site it recently...
