Going to laser engrave my laptop

I would go with a cool fractal design or pattern. Would definitely look better than either of the images you linked.
 
Of the two, I like the skyline. I'd really like some crazy ass line art, but I don't know how hard that would be for you to do.

If somebody was going to steal or vandalize a laptop, they'd do it regardless of what it had on it.

Besides that those who are looking to steal usually want the item for its easy resale value. Someone else's personally engraved laptop doesn't strike me as the most anonymous thing to fence.

Thieves and vandals don't tend to be exceedingly smart or rational. 😉



 
Final design, going to laser it tomorrow. It's vector, so there will be nothing blurry about it. I went with the idea of the apple being the center element and the design needed to embrace that.

Final design.
