oooh they throw in another pc that is worth at least $400? Then it's totally worth it.

or you could repay your credit cards, student loans and car loan with your $30,000.

Snazzy sure, but if you look closely at the pics on the ebay page, the table top with the keyboard on it doesn't look like it overhangs the bottom assembly at all. There's no room to put a chair! So unless you want to sit with your keyboard on your lap further away from the screens then they already are, I'd save yourself $30k.

Who am I kidding, that thing isn't even worth 1/4 of that amount.

Exactly what I was going to say. Funny thing is my cc, student loans and car loan add up to almost exactly that amount...let's see computer that looks like crap or get out of debt.

Yeah, I can't really say I find this setup all that exciting. If I had that kind of money to spend on something like that, I'd just get a nice red oak, solid wood desk ($1500), and put together a nice water-cooled, i7, Radeon HD5870 X4, triple-display system ($3500), then put the other $25000 in my pocket.

first thing that came to mind is the wifey said that POS had to go. we all know it's not worth 30k, must be the 25k for the shipping and "handling"

Zackly!! There is no way in hell I would pay 30k for that POS when I could build a sweet a$$ computer for 1/3 the price including dual 30" monitors. And if I wanted a second computer to do all my downloading then that could be built for 4 to 5 hundred dollars. That thing is just a complete waste of money.

[citation][nom]vvildcard[/nom]LOL @ Wall of Fans Technology... This thing is gonna run you about 80 dB at idle. At least you won't hear the hard drives spinning...[/citation]

lol, I saw the 24 fans, and wondered where the disco ball, and 22" spinner rims were.

Who the hell wrote this blurb?
They deserve to be fired, or at the very least, beaten ruthlessly with their own keyboard.
Is this toms hardware, or is it

Yeah TOTALLY NOT RELATED. THIS IS ADVERTISING FOR AN EBAY OFFER.

I HOPE SOMEONE GETS FIRED.
