Moneual Showcases Swarovski-Encrusted Computer at CES

— January 10, 2010 — Luxury
This has got to be one of the most outrageous personal computers currently in the market. Moneual showcased their golden Swarovski jewel encrusted HTPC at CES 2010--with mixed reviews, I’m sure.

The 701 Jewelry HTPC is equipped with HDMI, Blu ray, and Windows Vista Home Premium, which isn’t much for the $450,000 price tag. However, I think that perhaps the 3,500 Swarovski jewel-encrusted HTPC may still be worth its weight in gold in around 2025. I can’t wait to have a peek at Moneual’s upcoming one million-dollar PC.
Trend Themes
1. $450,000 Pcs - Innovation in high-priced luxury PCs may present opportunities for disruptive marketing and technology advancement.
2. Swarovski-encrusted Electronics - Creating high-end luxury electronics encrusted with precious gems could be a game-changing disruptive innovation in the electronics industry.
3. Jewelry-inspired Technology - Inspiration from the fashion industry to create high-end technology with a focus on aesthetics and design presents opportunities for disruption in tech and fashion industry spaces.
Industry Implications
1. Electronics - The electronics industry may benefit from introducing exclusive and luxurious high-end products in order to target a niche market and increase revenue.
2. Luxury Goods - Developing and manufacturing high-end luxury goods like jewelry-encrusted electronics can create new market opportunities for high-end luxury brands.
3. Fashion - The fusion of fashion and technology to create high-end electronics with jewelry-inspired design presents disruptive opportunities in both the fashion and tech industries.
