Question

Everyone wants to buy the perfect gift. Here are some very special gifts you might think about if you have a lot of money.

A beautiful sailboat

The Skimmer by Sailcraft Inc. flies across the water. The yellow sails on this bright red boat look really exciting. And the family of the lucky person who gets the Skimmer will be lucky, too. The boat has its own galley (船上的厨房）for making meals and it can sleep four people. Only $178,000.

A very special computer

The Nell 1500 is the newest in Nell’s line of unusual computers. It’s the smallest computer in the world. It’s just 5cm by 6cm. It will fit in your coat pocket, but it works like a larger computer. Imagine being able to carry a computer with you 24 hours a day! If this sounds good to you, you can get it for only $6,400.
