Yes, Finally, The Ultimate CAD/World Domination Workstation

by Josh on June 16, 2008 · Comments

I’ll agree with you, workstations nowadays are just not cuttin’ it. Our desires for widescreen monitors, THX Dolby surround sound, air filtering, light therapy, web cams, and battery backups are diminished by plain old systems that just ‘get the job done.’ NO MORE!

NovelQuest introduces… to you… in July… the ultimate in killer workstations… THE EMPEROR. Named after it’s resemblance to an Emperor Scorpion, the top lifts to easily attach yourself into the ergo-insect interior. This particular version features (only?) three 19″ screens and strikes with Mac or PC poison.

No word on if they will include auto-tracking missile batteries or an option to encase your self permanently in a life-sustaining goo. Price is also suspect although it’s sure to be high. A similar called the Gravitonus rings in at $7k.

    If i have this @ work I will never come out of it it wouldn't be very social..
    If you put some hydrolic legs under it you can terrorize your company as mechaCAD worker :)

    I've had this idea for years.!
    Its about time someone made it happen.

    I just wonder what level of company could afford/ justify -it...

    Could you imagine that PO going across the purchasing desk...?!
  • Nick Barber
    @Marijn - ha! I can just imagine that thing sprouting legs. That would be awesome! Does it have cupholders?
  • Eric
    Legs would be great. I'm thinking anywhere from 4-6 of them. Also it needs big shiny black pincers, a flame thrower, and possibly some kind of acid delivery option.

    On an every so slightly more serious note, it needs another row of three monitors above the current three and a 3DConnexion SpaceExplorer built into both arm rests.

    If those SpaceExplorers could be glowy blue-whitish that would make me smile.

    The acid delivery system is what would set this apart from any other wanabe insect-lookin' workstation. I think they throw in a pair of white contact lenses so it looks like the beast has symbiotically taken over your thought-control and now has a mind of it's own. welcome to the future.
  • Love it. Although I don't think I could justify the 7K sort of price tag, although I wonder if a set of these could save enough on office cubicle space to almost make it worth it (dream on I guess).
  • huh, replacing the cost of cubicle spaces... huh, i didn't think about that. I'm sure the chair is a bit more expensive, but if you take space and usability, sure it could replace them... although I'd worry about having to 'upgrade' your chair every so often. that could get expensive.
