that looks mental!

-Exodus- · 3 Jun 2008 at 23:01

lol that's mad looking

PinkFloyd · 3 Jun 2008 at 23:17

Pretty mental. I like it. Its so over the top and futuristic it looks cool rather than tacky

Wayne~ · 4 Jun 2008 at 11:52

I have to admit it does look quite good...

naudiz · 4 Jun 2008 at 13:29

Eww tbh

Agreed! That is taking personal computing to the next level.

I would say for a gamer only. Wouldn't see many of them around though.

Looks like the love child of the combine and a sand crawler.

Its certainly packed with features, but for the looks i think its a love it or hate it thing, and its just that bit too tacky and gadgety for me.

PK!

Reed · 4 Jun 2008 at 18:09

looks awesome but then i'm a big fan of orange

Heh, that's exactly what I was thinking.
To flashy for me tbh.

David91 · 4 Jun 2008 at 18:51

thats awesome!

if buy the case if you could buy just the case... no hope of that however

Damn sexy though

It reminded me of this:

Deaco · 30 Jun 2008 at 14:06

Just stumbled across this beast, when trying (and failing miserably) to update my lappy drivers.. and must say.. holy freakin' gawd I want it =D

But guessing they won't be selling them as a single item, which is a bit sucky

Tetsu · 30 Jun 2008 at 14:17

don't like it, looks a bit of a teenagers case

Deaco · 30 Jun 2008 at 14:20

lol although seriously like the Blackbird 002 - link

Looks rather nifty, and quite clean.. but not the bright luminous glowing orange that is the Acer heh

pingwing · 30 Jun 2008 at 14:28

I remember seeing that! It looks nuttyer than a squirrel in hibernation!

Would never own one mind you, it looks like something a 15year old would own to impress his friends (but not girls...)

milkinc13 · 30 Jun 2008 at 14:48

i can see the front bit getting snapped off, and i'm not to keen on the david dickenson colour scheme
