Here's a selection targeted at oil sheikhs, tech tycoons and ostentatious pop stars. The cheapest on this list is just a few dollars shy of 6 grand, while the most expensive costs $1,000,0000.
We'velearned a few things here at Laptopical over the years. The keylesson has been that, the more expensive a computer is, thebetter it's gotta be, right? So then that must mean that theLuvaglio One Million Dollar Laptop is the super best computer inthe whole wide world. The name says it all about its price.ThisEnglish-made masterpiece has not been released yet, but put yourbid in now. There will only be one made. Rumor has it that theLuvaglio will come with nothing less than a built-in USB memorystick, a 128GB hard drive, Blu-ray optical drive, and your choiceof adornments--wood, leather, and metals of only the mostprecious kind. What's more, the Luvaglio will have an automaticscreen cleaner and allows its user to upgrade and swap outcomponents at will.
For No. 2 on our list, we'll have to take a steep drop in price.The Tulip E-Go Diamond laptop will only run you $355,000. Thebeauty of this computer is its, well, beauty. It has chromehandles and smooth curves, leather swatches, and white goldplating encrusted with diamonds. Underneath all this regalia,however, is a standard computer with 2GB of RAM and 160GB harddrive. But would you really want to risk scratching the leatherby opening up this laptop? I think not.
Now we get into the real "cheapies" of the most-expensive-laptoplist. There is the Voodoo Envy H: 171, the ultimate in gaming for$8768. No diamonds or leather here, but hardware that should meltthe chassis at their top speeds-4GB of RAM, two Nvidia Quatro FXGo 2500M graphics chips, two 250GB hard drives andguillotine-sharp to visualize your whirling gaming universe. TheEnvy still has some fashion sense, though: you can pick from oneof 24 chassis colors and a "tattoo."
Another gamer on this list is the WidowPC Sting 919, for only$7326. this 20-inch display weighs in at 20 pounds, about as muchas the gold bullion you'd need to pay it off. It also comes with4GB of RAM, but just one 160GB hard drive. The graphics set up,though, is second to none-with twin Nvidia GeForce Go 7950 GTXprocessors and an Nvidia nForce 4 SLI processor.
For another heavy desktop replacer, try the Dell XPS M2010, at18.3 pounds and $5898. One neat twist to this is the Bluetoothkeyboard and the Blu-ray drive. That and the 2.3 GHz Intel Core 2Duo processor and 4GB that make this thing fly-all for under $1million. And if you have a lot of media to store, the double200GB hard drives should provide more than enough room. If not,you're rich, buy another.
So I lied. The most expensive laptops out there aren'tnecessarily the best. The Luvaglio might be nice for anostentatious Saudi prince, and the Tulip might work for a drunkenHollywood vixen. But in my opinion the best expensive pcs onthis list are the "reasonably" pricedones.

I really can't fathom why anyone would pay huge money for a laptop that will be outdated in a few years. I'd find it difficult to look up to someone who made such an ostenatatious purchase. Cars are OK because they can be beautiful and perform superbly, but laptops?
