Ever wonder why the Macbook Pro cost so much? Aside from the sum of all of its parts and software included, there has to be something that makes it so expensive compared to its counterparts. Sure it looks gorgeous and it performs well, but does it have to cost an arm and a leg? Well, based on the experience of a Macbook Pro owner in the US, he found out that it takes more than a car to stop his prized laptop from functioning.

While loading some stuff into the trunk of his car, he accidentally, of all things to forget, left his laptop packed in a Crumpler bag on the ground. It was only when he backed up his car and ran over the laptop did he realize his mistake. Amazingly, aside from the obvious damage to the LCD screen and superdrive slot, it still works. Considering the Macbook Pro isn’t billed as a rugged shock-proof laptop, it can survive one hell of an ordeal that probably most ordinary laptops won’t. I guess this is when the saying you get what you paid for comes in pretty handy.
