I wouldn't call myself geeky enough for some of those things.. ok, most things :)

But I really like the light emitting wallpaper and the pixlated sofa (more because the sofa looked good than any geeky relation thingy). The rest I can actually live without, and some of it I would actually pay to not have in my home :)

There is some REALLY cool stuff there! A rideable vacuum cleaner! Hans Solo frozen in carbonite table! I wonder how much that costs?

And light emitting wallpaper- that is just tres chic :)

The pixel couch was very funky too. Maybe I am more of a geek than I realized- but I want half the stuff on that site.

EDIT- haha Mort- we like the same things!

Wouldn't want it any other way! :)

Although I would feel very silly having a desk picturing Han Solo in carbonite :)

I've seen some more extremes where dudes with money have remodeled their entire home-theatre room into a Star Trek spaceship bridge, that is a little... eh, much :)

True- I am not sure I would actually want to own it, but it is still pretty cool, especially for hard core SW fans.

That ripple faucet is too cool. And the arcade coffee table. The space invaders wall decals would be cool for our game room (if we didn't already have something geekier in mind. ;) ). But I may have to scrap my plans for that light emitting wall paper. Too cool!


Oh, and how fast can my Roomba get here?

- Insert Wishlist to Santa [Mort Ed]
So... all then? :)

I don't really understand the mesh curtains or the flickr wallpaper.. how do they work? I'm a big sucker for cool wallpapers or wallpaintings. Me and my roommate have painted one of our livingroom walls with a siluett of dancing people, it's very cool :)

So do American ones.


They don't look like they're dancing though, more like cheering. But still very cool.

Too bad though I used such a high res picture... you can probabably spot the dirt on the floor, or maybe the Eddings books on one of the shelves (roommate's, my bookshelf is the right one). I have the KoD book there to balance it all out :D
