[QUOTE]Big gaming PCs are great, but finding room for that giant case with all its fans and graphics cards can be tough. Especially if you live in a moderately sized flat as opposed to a rural mansion. Which is why the work of Red Harbinger looks interesting. This newcomer to the world of bespoke boutique systems is looking to popularise the idea of putting a PC inside a desk.
Harbinger’s latest work, dubbed the Cross, comes with three screens and space for enough components to build two PCs inside. It also has room for 28 hard drives, 14 fans and four water cooling radiators.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE]Components sit underneath the glass desk, separated up in a modular fashion to improve cooling and reduce noise. The internals are all illuminated with customisable LEDs, all the better to bathe your pallid skin with an artificial hue.
There’s no word on price for the Cross yet, or indeed when it will be commercially available, but apparently it will be available worldwide. Alternatively, you could follow the instructions here to build something similar of your own, if you’re handy with a swing lathe and dremel.[/QUOTE]

Next, they sell houses!
Now where would I put my house...
toys for rich kids: part uno
ughughugh
Really want. There is a lot of stupid bullshit for PC gaming out there but this is pretty nifty.
And yet they manage to make the desk look as ricey as possible.
It's still a novel idea though.
And it only costs [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l91ISfcuzDw[/media]

The ultimate farmville machine!

It's funny because it's true :v:

Only one thing to say for me here.

This is actually useful for designing very powerful PC's. Even years forward (or maybe even decades) when the current models and equipment becomes out-dated, the desk could be used for making a new PC thanks to it's free-space inside.

Lots of them!
The Reasons, that is.
Wat if you spill a drink on it
can I get one that's wooden and looks like a normal desk?
[QUOTE=OhHello;35203785]Wat if you spill a drink on it[/QUOTE]
Nothing, because the top is closed?

I guess you could mod a desk with big drawers, make some holes in it etc
That's a pretty good idea actually
I wish I had a kidney to sell.
The thing would produce so much heat

It looks watercooled, I don't think it would be terrible.
Words cannot explain how much I want this.
If I was ok with not having sex for the rest of my life I would totally buy this.
it looks ricey and horrible and you could probably build one yourself for so much less
If Ikea sold kits with premade mobo attachments and such it'd be cool though
Want. I will cover up with wood if need be.
You could make this yourself for less than $100.
It's just a gutted desk.

I know a kid that spent like £600 - 700 on a gaming rig
all to play JUST Sims 3 and Farmville.
Meh, I did that before they even thought of doing it.
Though I screwed the shit under my wooden IKEA desk.
Why couldn't they make it simpler looking? Nobody wants their ordinary room decorated with something that looks like it was stolen from some LSD rave cave (Unless your room already looks like one).
I don't really want to hear the price of this thing.

No doubt the will put a hugely ridiculous and overpriced tag on this fucker even though it doesn't seem there's any real complex technology behind it.
I bet they used some rare and fucking expensive materials while making this to get a bigger price tag. "This desk is made 100% out of panda fetus infused metal solution".
