Mobile Cyber Box packs up the day’s work with style

Just last week, we brought to you a mobile, ergonomic workstation that could be compacted in to one unit. Following closely on its heels, we have the Cyber Box. The trend of present day’s workstations is moving on wheels, literally. And to call off the day’s work, users can simply close down their office into a well-designed structure. Designer Jacky Nicolas too has focused on these two elements and fabricated the Cyber Box. Since we cannot chuck the computer out of our lives, Jacky allows us to lock it up in an elegant cabinet-like case when not in use. Aptly designed for working from home, it has room for all that is needed to be labeled as the most efficient and organized worker.

Cyber Box

From the images it can be noted that apart from housing a desktop unit (monitor, keyboard and CPU), it also has space for a printer and shelves to place folders, files and CDs. There is enough leg space under the monitor too. All you got to do is unlatch the case, slide in your chair and work to glory.

Crafted out of beechwood and chromium metal parts, it can move about easily with the help of heavy duty castors on the base. If only Jacky could find a way to fit in a pull-out kinda chair. That would make it a complete workstation.

Modular Office Furniture: Wood Box Storage, Desk & Chair

Modular

Have a small house can not necessarily work in comfort and optimal, is not it?
Modular Office Furniture This one is very suitable as a desk for you who have limited space or a lot of work to move the location

The ultimate office furniture to-go: a single space-saving solid wood storage case contains everything you need for an office – and a smaller accessory box unfolds into a comfortable chair to go with it. Whether you are a digital nomad or a nine-to-five office worker this would be a handy mobile addition to any office layout

Modular

This creative Trunk Station office furniture set comes with plenty of storage space, a fold out miniature desk surface and laptop area, shelving units with a built-in filing system as well as other shelves for odds and ends. Best of all, the whole furniture system is set on wheels and split into two parts that can be shut, shipped and stored with ease – and from an interior design standpoint they would look as great as closed-up office decor as they when folded open and transformed into functional furniture.

Phone That Shames The Weather Bureau

Gadgets

I don’t know about your city, but the weather bureau of my hometown is often sniggered at, for their in-accurate predictions. When they say it will rain (like they predicted a couple of days ago) you can be sure it will be bright and sunny. I would like to gift them this “Window Phone”, that makes accurate predictions and even changes its display to reflect the climatic conditions outdoors. Maybe I should keep the phone for myself and bug the bureau with my updates.

Forget Lasik, Get Eye Power!

Forget Lasik, Get Eye Power!
This reminds me of a do-it-yourself lasik kit I saw as a gag once. However, given this is coming from Japan, and I can't read Japanese, I have no idea if this Eye Power thing is real. The theory goes, you stare into this machine for 10 minutes and "ultrasonic technology" restores your myopic, near-sighted self to perfect 20/20 vision.

Sounds too good to be true, if you ask me. However, 88,000 yen (about $800 USD) is a bit cheaper than lasik surgery. I suppose if you're brave and you can navigate a Japanese web site to order the device, you could give it a try. But hey, I'm expecting the device to be a waste of money.

Just Another Bugatti?

Just Another Bugatti?
Sometimes it seems that every high-end classic car auction has to have a Bugatti on the block. Considering that the French marque was a low-volume sports/racing machine, one wonders how so a number of survived. (Conversely, would you have kicked Ava Gardner out of bed?) So let's show due respect to this 1937 Bugatti 57SC Atalante Coupe, which will be auctioned by RM in Arizona Jan 17, 2009 with preview Jan 16. Finished in its early 60s restoration colours of Patrol Cream and Lemon Oxide, it is one of the few 'estimate on request' cars in the sale. This Bug was once part of the mammoth Harrah collection in Reno, Nevada where it was retro-fitted with a supercharger. It is said to have a 120 mph top speed, which must have been exciting, to say the least, on those skinny period tires. And how much will it bring? A similar car went for a mere $7,920,000 at a 2008 Monterey sale. But that was before the recession.
