'Big-O' packs Xbox 360 and PC into one case

Guess I'd put this in the "Just for the hell of it" Category.

Overkill, you're doing it right.

super mega overkill! imagine gettin a blue screen on that

It seems like overkill until you realize that you could build the $17000 version for less than the cost of the "economy" model...then it just seems like overspending.

Also, if I was dumb enough to want to spend $17000 on a PC/360 combo, I would want a PS3 and maybe even a wii in there as well.

well for $17000 you could build a custom computer (similar to that),buy a new tv,buy a ps3 and an xbox 360.plus you'd probably had enough money left over for a decent second hand car.

I buy a house in Florida for that price of money with the economy now days.

I would take one, but i would buy the shell and build it myself. Pulling a computer out of the box is no fun.

then it would be fun to build the case as well, thinking glass fishtank table with water cooled computer in the tank under the desk. hahaha with 2 glass 32" flat screens

can we spell ripoff???

answers on a postcard to......

I would rather buy a car if i had $17,000 to spend :)

users buy cars, Nerds buy computers. Been like that for years

I buy a house

You can buy a $100,000 condo (2 years ago price) for the cost of the upgraded version of this PC...two years from now the PC will be worth less than $1000(if you are lucky), and the condo will be worth at least $50k.

Honest question: Where do you live that you can get a condo for $17k, especially one that has depreciated over 80 percent since the bubble burst?

lets see 2K tops for the PC stuff 300 for the 360 and another 200ish for odds and ends.

first; what only 32" up it by 10 more inches, and add an extra one for eye infinity.

Second; water? I agree with the tank but if you gonna go that far all out, then use oil not water. It'll cool it better it doesn't harm the parts and frankly building a PC like that you won't ever need to upgrade it for a long while.

Eye infinity is for ATi Mysttic. Dunno if I wouldn't prefer a couple of HD 5970s myself.

There's the argument over tessellation... is that still relevant?

Is the oil solution as easy to cool off?

====================================================

@ Zip... are you including the cooling system and PSU in that $2000 USD?

====================================================

Is that the best mobo... what about a Gigabyte one?

The new X360s are whisper quite, my mate bought one, I can't see them RRODing easily so what's the point?

I concur, it's a rip off... especially with the X360 addition (it's intriguing but stupid).

---

Do they sell them at Target?
I'm only asking because that seems like a pretty blatant rip-off of the Target logo.
