Monolab Design Trunk spares no expense to accomodate expensive gear


While most of us can get by with a laptop bag on our travels, if you really need to have your primo gear with you at all times, you may want to take some cues from this one-of-a-kind trunk from the folks at Monolab Design. Apparently, this project began years ago when its creator was living from hotel to hotel, and it has now wound up as a fixture in the first Monolab|Workspace in Palo Alto, California. Not exactly fulfilling its purpose, to be sure, but it is undeniably a pretty impressive piece of work, with the entire 300-pound rid constructed out of anodized aluminum, and it boasting custom-built accommodations for a Mac Pro, a 23-inch Apple Cinema Display 23″, a Music Hall Mambo amplifier, and a pair of aluminum-enclosed Webern loudspeakers. No plans for building your own, unfortunately, but you can get a better look at it by hitting up the read link below.

Pinel & Pinel offers up iMac rig carrier, cleverly dubbed iTrunk


Sure, the iMac's all-in-one design makes it a tad easier to tote around than, say, every other non-conjoined computer rig, but it still lacks the mobility true road warriors crave. Aside from the iLugger bag, hauling around that iMac was a struggle at best, but now you've got a way to not only bring along your trusty computer when you hit the highways, but your entire host of very necessary accessories can tag along too. Pinel & Pinel, creators of customized hauling cabinets and other random knick knacks, has crafted an all-inclusive rolling carrying container for your iMac, speakers, printer, keyboard, mouse, and basically anything else that feels at home when connected to your Mac. We're not sure if the bottom compartment sports a fuel-powered generator, but it looks that you could add one if you so choose, and while we've no idea how much coinage this gigantic box would run you, those even remotely interested probably aren't worried about dollars and cents in the first place.
