Mere months have passed since ballsy student Alex Tew completed his Million Dollar Homepage, now another entrepreneurial free loader comes up with an idea we wish we'd thought of first.

Finding herself in need/want of a MacBook Pro, Leah Culver got on the blower to a bunch of local firms in the San Francisco Bay area, offering them advertising space on her fantasy purchase in exchange for $150.

Bizarrely a whole bunch of companies, including 'mom and dad inc', responded and she now has her customised laptop complete with laser-etched logos. Meanwhile said sponsors have had more worldwide coverage than they could ever have bargained for.

Now if anyone would like to sponsor us a new Humvee H3, we'd be delighted to talk numbers.
