Personally i think the money is going to a great cause but this thing i think is pretty stupid! All it is a ps3 that is in the form of laptop which you cant even it use it as one. screen is what 7" thats crap for playing games c' on big waste of time! But agin all that money going for a good cause!

$23,000

Who would have guessed?! An amazing charity, indeed, with everything going to Cancer research. Much respect goes to Ben for not pocketing the money himself.

@rimshot515: I agree about the slow down part.
It will probable get near 30,000 but im not sure if it will pass that much. It's gone from a used car to a freaking Lexus pretty damn quick.

I say exactly $27,685.79. Trust me, I'm the great-great-great-grandson of a psychic's great-granddaughter's ex-husband's wife's cousin-twice-removed's daughter's "life-partner's" grade school teacher. Or something like that.

I've seen better auction write -ups from a 13 year old selling a guitar. Grammar and spelling are ridiculous.

I'll say $32500

OMG. The Giz linked to Engadget...

Didn't that Wired article about Mr. Lam and co. say that because of the rivalry, there is next to no linkage to these two blogs? Because it's a pit of death!

But, then again it is for a good cause - charity. I would so bid if I had the dough to even reach the limit at the time I am writing this.
