Laser Etching my Powerbook
Some might ask why would you laser etch your Powerbook? I would say because I'm never going to get a tattoo.
I went to Atlanta and GA Tech this weekend. They have some sweet toys! Since the opportunity was at hand, and I was very tired, and I had a couple hours to kill, this just sort of happened....
The design in based on the LUCI website
