New product from Thermaltake
That joke about using a CD drive tray as a cup-holder was no joke to the guys at Thermaltake. http://www.thinkgeek.com/pcmods/cabl...ction/210e1e2/

I love it -- I just wonder if if the CPU underclocks or the drives spin down when the lighter is pushed in!?!?!

The cup holder is motorized! $20 is a good price for a pretty cool upgrade.

hmm im suspicious if thermaltake really came up with those. Thermaltakes real site doesnt even have those. I'd order one if I knew I could trust that site.

Mmm, nothing like a hot cup 'O java tethered to your PC. That's about as brilliant as the USB coffee warmer.

I'd be too worried about nudging it and sending it all over my computer though

And why cant you just set the cup on the table holding your monitor? or next to your keyboard?

lol...nothing like keeping a large container of liquid beverage directly on the front of your computer. the motorized part is cool...problem is i would assume most peopls PC's are under there desk or on top, so it would make it inconvenient/likely to spill. i guess if i put it all the way on my bottom 5.25 bay itd be ok though
