Last August I reviewed the LapWorks Laptop Desk Futura, a versatile laptop cooler that folds up and elevates your keyboard or folds out and acts as a platform to keep your thighs from burnin' up. The model I reviewed was a cool, steel grey, but now the Futura has gotten even cooler with the Painted Futuras. LapWorks announced a call for new colors a few months back and then let users vote on their favorites--including Gearlog readers.

Now, at last, the new colors and designs are here: Deep Red, Bustin' Blue, Passion Pink (that's mine on the left), Tempting Teal, Largely Leopard, Desert Camou, Jungle Camou and Red Marble. Better, yet, a new color or design will be announced each month, based on your votes.

Ironically, the Painted Futuras are not actually painted at all. They're printed using magic ink and lasers! No really, they're printed using industrial grade ink that hardens when exposed to UV light.

Each Futura is custom made per customer and can be returned for a full refund within two weeks if it's not up to your standards. (You're such a snob!) Customize your own Painted Futura for $49.95.
