Most outrageous Media PC ever

[tonyc]

This is the most hideous thing I've ever seen, and really can't see why the seller would class this as a media pc. I'd be the laughing stock if I had this by my tv.

As a gaming pc in someone's bedroom then it would look great and would be admired by many pc geeks, but for me it's awful. Where is that trade descriptions telephone number.

Dont think the Mrs would be to happy with that next to the plasma in my nice minimal livingroom!

Agreed it's pretty 'loud' looking. Not exactly bowled over by their ad either, but at least they are trying. It would probably be the only Media Center PC in the country with a 1350watt PSU as well

The gallery pic is of "Orac" which won loads of awards on one of the mod sites. I`m sure the seller doesnt have permission to use that. Also did you notice the payment options? No paypal and a discount offered for bank transfer or cheque.
Seems a bit funny to me.

Until you mentioned Orac, I hadn't thought about that, but yeah I can see the resemblence now. I wonder if it makes that awful noise and whiny voice when powered up and that you have to put a key in it to activate

I didn't give the listing a thorough read through as searching for a cheapish media pc for my brother that wants to get rid of his rather noisy tower unit next to his pc and this awful thing cropped up. Ugh !

He won't be getting my order that's for sure.
