A live auction lets sponsors bid for 12 spots on someone's future MacBook, with winning logos permanently laser-etched into the aluminium.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-29 issue.

Field notes

The project divides each MacBook lid into twelve ranked sponsor positions and lets bidders move upward by paying more than the current holder. The displayed campaign targets a MacBook Pro 14″ M5 at $1,699, with $11 raised and 12 days remaining for its leading recipient. Sponsors receive a dofollow link immediately, while the physical logo etching is tied to reaching the campaign goal. Listing a recipient’s own lid is presented as free.
