Football World Cup 2006 Powerdesk

    The emblazoned cross of St George may have already implied that the desk is something associated with England. Actually yes. The desk is specially designed for English soccer fans and priced at at £8,000 for the model measuring 740mm (h) x 1440mm (w) x 840mm (d).

    From the website:
    To ensure that the tournament can be followed in perfect picture quality, a 19 inch LCD screen has been installed. The screen can be raised or lowered by remote control, taking less than 10 seconds from being fully raised to completely lowered. When lowered the screen is concealed beneath an electric sliding panel meaning it is completely hidden from view. To ensure that the atmosphere and excitement from the stadium comes through loud and clear a 320 watt sound system with four speakers is also built into the desk.

    The computing power is delivered by a fully integrated Hewlett Packard PC, the full specifications of which can be selected when ordered. The PC comes with the manufacturer’s on-site warranty and is fully and easily upgradeable at any time. The PC has a TV card installed so that live matches broadcast on television can be screened on the desk’s LCD screen. In the front of the desk embedded within the thickness of the workstation there are two USB ports and a DVD/CD rewriter, perfect for downloading the World Cup highlights, watching streamed matches, listening to ‘Three Lions’ or watching the 1966 World Cup final on DVD.

    To keep those beers or halftime snacks cool the desk also features a deluxe silver baby fridge with a light. With a five litre capacity the fridge cools to 20 degrees below ambient and can hold up to eight cans of coke, four small drink (0.5 litre) bottles, or a packed lunch for two. When the World Cup is over and the Autumn internationals come around the fridge can be switched to heating mode to keep food warm.
