Oculas: HGTTG-branded Apple Gaming Luxury Pod

Are you a huge Douglas Adams fan? Did you love the movie version of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy? Does your taste in furnishings run a little Mork & Mindy? Do you have 6,100 pounds sterling to invest in the ultimate piece of movie shwag? Do you live near Portsmouth, Hampshire, UK?

If you answered yes to all of the above (and I do mean all), then head on over to this ebay auction and bid, bid, bid! For your trouble and money, you could win an "Oculas [that] was designed, hand built and finished by Lee McCormack. It will never be re-produced in the same version; it is one of a total of 50. 21 are HHGG Oculas, as is this one. The Oculas was in the Heart of Gold spaceship featured in the HHGG film although not this exact one. This one was made for Disney to help promote the film worldwide." Even better, as all futuristic movie furniture is wont to do, the Oculas comes with a 17-inch 1.6Ghz iMac G5 inside and JBL speakers. Here's a link to the non-HHGTTG Oculas.

Now, the only part of this auction that really makes me not bid on it right away (besides the price and the fact that my wife would kill me of course) is this little hyperbolic claim: "Gaming: the Oculas has been described by many gaming experts as a potential for the most intense gaming experience possible." Here's the rub: there's no gaming hardware mentioned. Just an iMac which comes with a copy of Nanosaur 2 and Marble Blast Gold. Gaming heaven!
