Finally, the perfect gift for that hard-to-buy-for Rainn Wilson fan on your list. Toshiba, GQ Magazine, and four "men of innovation" have combined their considerable talents to create unique limited-edition laptops, four for each celebrity, which are being auctioned off on eBay. Who are these men of innovation? Rainn Wilson, Hines Ward, Joe Perry, and Omar Epps. The proceeds from each innovator's laptops will go to a different charity. Wilson's charity, for example, is the MONA Foundation, which supports women and children in distressed areas around the world.

Each celebrity has customized a different Toshiba laptop. Ward has the Toshiba Satellite P505, with a big 18.4-inch screen, while Wilson has the lightweight Toshiba Satellite M505. The auction series will last for four weeks, with a new laptop for each celebrity auctioned off each week. So far bidding is slow; as of this writing, Ward's laptop has the highest bid, at $510.00.

I might consider bidding if the original hard drive is in the system...pretty sure it isn't. :P
