Thermaltake Attracts Women With Swarovski Bling
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…

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.
Oh great, now Jamie Fox's Golddigger song is stuck in my head...

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.
mmmmmmmmm booth babes.... Is Tom's going to give us a booth babe slide show again this year?
Where are the 24" spinners?
are they TRYING to be tacky?
Why use booth babe if the product is aimed at girls? Maybe a special kind of girl?

Your standards are seriously messed up! Anyway, nothing wrong with the girl ... but OMG that case is UGLY!
please don't feed the models...
too much crystal is just as bad as too much beige.

even girls find attractive girls appealing.. and that booth babe has it.. i mean, jane did write this and posted the pix and i am in no way questioning her preferences.. good looking ppl holding up products sells things!

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

You mean electronic ones?
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!
(Jk jane. lol)
These do look awful, and I think the booth babe is ok. Looks like she's blushing though.
The Paris Hilton line I guess...
Yea I think Jane may be jealous or something XD
Hey, I conceded that she was attractive. No jealousy here.

Women are like cats. We love anything shiny/sparkly. This stuff is basically kryptonite.
The girl isn't ugly but she looks kinda fake. In both pics she has the exact same facial expression... only her eyes moved.
A bunch of ugly square bulky things. They should've put more thought into the design and color.
It looks like she's holding an iron. I don't know how that's supposed to appeal to women.
The girl isn't ugly but she looks extremely fake and scary.
Fixed it for you
The bling is ugly... I'll gladdly tach the booth babe. I've been to E3 & CES - most Both babes looks like strippers. But hey, breasts are breasts and drunking geeks don't care... or non-drunk geeks as well
Yea... that's what happens when you bring ATI cooler stickers to life...
Fixed it for you
LOL! Perfect!

That's not a cat, that's a vulture. Cats like anything that they can chew or claw until we are forced to throw it away.
