No matter if you use NovelQuest’s Emperor Workstation to play Star Wars games, hack UN*X or control your evil forces in search for world domination it’ll just fit like a glove. Promise.
Besides looking huge and intimidating (as all computer workstations should) it comes packed with features like three TFT displays, air filter, light therapy, THX-sound and a uber-comfy seat. Not only that, whenever you want to get in or out of this thing it’ll lift the arm holding the displays by the press of a button.
It’ll launch in July this year, price to be announced.

Oh yeah, it looks like the design dep. over at Dell has started to think outside the box a little nowdays. This is Crystal, a stylish 22-inch widescreen display made in 4mm thin and ultra-clear tempered glass with capacitive touch-controls at the bottom.
Other goodies include a resolution of 1680×1050 (WSXGA+) with 2ms response time, a built-in webcam, four integrated speakers (with a subwoofer output), a tripod stand and a single (slightly fatter) cable to reduce desk clutter.
Keep it up Dell, I like what I see here.

This way you could have it to show selected tool icons along with a color selector while running Photoshop, just media buttons while watching movies and so on.
