NEC & Takara Tomy: Battlestations! Cubicle Wars have a new command center

NEC and toy maker Takara Tomy are working together to create the ultimate secret base and headquarters for nerdy spies, superheroes, and anime otaku.
The TYPE-NO1 is Tomy’s customizable “command station” complete with an “Emergency button” for shutdown (Maybe useful if you have a Sony battery?). Our favorite part is the bright LED “Glitter Panel” that displays customizable information about the computer (memory, CPU use), scrolling news, email alerts, etc. The computers are also physically customizable with stickers, and internally customizable by using the CD Rom.
