If you were paying any attention to the Internet in the days after the passing of Steve Jobs late last year, then it’s unlikely you didn’t see Hong Kong design student Jonathan Mak Long’s wonderful image of Jobs’ face in the Apple logo.
It garnered a lot of well-deserved praise from a wide array of people, even scoring him a job designing on a Coca Cola project.
Now, he’s collaborated with high-end Amsterdam design firm Uncover to auction off three Retina MacBook Pros with the design etched into the logo on the top. The firm specializes in creating custom MacBooks, mostly for musicians and celebrities at the moment.
