If you have too much money and don't know what to do with it, the Tulip Company comes to help, recently launching the E-Go Diamond laptop, inlaid with solid palladium white gold plates in which thousands of brilliant cut diamonds have been set. The quality of E-Go Diamond is stated as high class, and also the price: 336.557 USD.

The diamonds are microscopically and pave set with a surgical precision. Because of the different diameter cuts, the models obtained are elegant. Moreover, a square ruby is settled on the Tulip logo, on the interior and exterior of the case.

The E-Go laptop is hand bag shaped and it is targeted at ladies, so, not exactly for gamers. Though, the specifications are good. The system is based on an AMD Turion 64 processor, with an ATI Radeon Xpress 200 graphic chipset and featuring 1 GB of DDR RAM PC3200 memory. The hard disk can store 100 GB SATA and the display is a 12.1 inch widescreen WHGA, supporting 1280 X 800 pixel resolution.

Also, a DVD-RW optical unit is available, a touch pad, a built in webcam with a LED illuminative point and a microphone for video and voice conferences. The connectivity is enabled by Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g, Bluetooth 1.2, the ExpressCard slot, by four USB 2.0 slots and the 10/100Base-T NIC. Additionally, VGA and S-Video port are available and a SD/MMC/MS/MS Duo card reader. Tulip E-Go Diamond sound system is a 2.1 one stereo, while the battery has a four hour lifetime specification.

For the Tulip E-Go project, Beer Master Jewellery Designer worked closely together with Design Department product engineering and Marcel van Galen Design Laurent. Tulip claims that the development of this laptop, together with the whole range of similar products from the company, though cheaper, aligns to the personalize tendency of portable devices, especially that laptops began to spread worldwide.
