When you love something so much – as much as this guy Pascal likes Star Trek’s LCARS UI – that you recreate it down to the smallest detail, you’d better be willing to go all the way. While he has skinned Windows to look like a screen on the deck of the Enterprise, why doesn’t he have his girlfriend dress up like a Klingon? Why aren’t there tribbles in his kitchen? Where is the Borg? WTF, Pascal. You don’t cut and run when it comes to religion.

In all honesty, this is probably the coolest home automation system I’ve seen and I’d totally hire him to wire mine up. I’d get mine to look like the UNIX SYSTEM from Jurassic Park, though, complete with a giggling Newman.
