Our recent revolt against the embargo notwithstanding, I was going to hold onto this until the PR folks had asked me, but someone else has let the cat out of the bag (shame!) so now you guys get to see it too.

As for the display itself, I think it looks filthy. Case displays are usually pretty weak little things, monochrome or limited in customizability. This one from hardware maker BFG Tech is not only touchable but full-color and appears to be able to affect your components. Imagine just touching down your fans a bit when watching a movie, or putting your video card into overdrive when you know you’re going to need it, all from a dedicated display. Can’t wait to see this thing in action.
