Thermaltake Attracts Women With Swarovski Bling

By - Source: Tom's Hardware US

There’s usually not a lot of sparkly things to be found at Computex and for the folks that attend Computex that’s just fine.

That said, it seems Thermaltake is trying to cater for the few people who might actually want an "absolutely elegant aluminum" iPod stand or a laptop stand that is completely covered in Swarovski crystals, rather than its usually market of men (and women) who wish to house more spectacular and increasingly large heat sinks. Enter its year old brand, Luxa. Aimed at those who want to stand out from the crowd, looking at any of these products will likely damage your vision.

The images below are probably the best way to represent what Luxa is all about so we’ll leave you with this cascade of Swarovski and you can make up your own minds…

    Why use booth babe if the product is aimed at girls? Maybe a special kind of girl?

    Attracts women? Those cases look like they attract gold diggers. Give me a break.

    They could have easily found a much hotter girl for this... but, hey, it still brightens up my day!

    Believe me dude... at these nerd conventions, anything with two orbs on their chest is the hottest thing.

    So I'm guessing Steve Wozniak is at those things.

    Thermaltake has angered the Gods with devices so gaudy and ugly. Surely we will all have to pay for this mistake.

    please don't feed the models...

    too much crystal is just as bad as too much beige.

    I'm straight but the girl is hot. I don't have to be an artist to appreciate fine art.

    T_T scared me when I found out a girl wrote this article... Yea I think Jane may be jealous or something XD

    But I'm not sure if that's so 'hot', looks too artifially modified to appear hot lol. The way I judge girls for being hot or cold (lol) is by imagining how they look with all their hair shaved off, and how they look when they're old. Yea it may sound kind of weird... I know...

    Lol, so where's Jane at cursing about anything targeted at girls? Bedazled cases? Those sexist son of a bitches! :p  (Jk jane. lol)

    These do look awful, and I think the booth babe is ok. Looks like she's blushing though.
