The $40k version of this is absolutely amazing. Unfortunately it'll have to sit on my waiting to win the lottery list.

Daily Planet, a Discovery Channel Canada television show, did a piece on this a while before Christmas. It is really impressive, even cup holders can be put in! Do a search there for the clip if it's still on their site.

hopefully the higher end model will drop in price. If not 5k isn't that bad. Too bad this is such a niche market b/c I would really like to see someone else compete for my 5k.

[citation][nom]thedreadfather[/nom]If anything it looks more like a Droideka than a Battle Droid[/citation]

Actually, "battle droid" is a catch all term that covers all droids designed for war, so a droideka IS a battle droid, you seem to have assumed that the term battle droid can only be used when referencing a B1 model.

< Drool > looking at the setup, it's very possible to build something like this yourself if you're handy with tools. The seat pictured looks like the red one on this page.

Plus if you have access to a metal shop, you could fabricate the rest of the frame work including the arms holding the monitors.

I can just see it now, having something like this in my living room with a swivel base. My wife would kill me! :D

Is it just me or did I see Taco Bell as one of NovelQuest's customers?

Anyways I wouldn't mind having one of these, would be one hell of an experience.

I would love to see you try to put something as nice as this together for under a thousand dollars.

I'm a carpenter and i made ALL the furniture in my house figure i saved myself around 50k the way i have my house. But then again i dont think i could craft that out of wood for under 5k.

No cup holders. Fail. On a slightly less flippant note, if I were to build this I would probably use steel tubes to construct the frame but with the addition of a 3d motorized gimble mount so I could realize my old school dream of replicating the "Descent" cockpit environment.
