Someone thought it would be a good idea to model their home theater after the Enterprise NCC-1701D from Star Trek: The Next Generation. The result is super geeky, but actually rather cool. Named the best theme theater installation at CEDIA 2007, this Palm Beach County, FL home features motion-activated air-lock doors with series sound effects, and a “Red Alert” button on the Crestron TPMC-10 controller to turn all of the LEDs bright red and flashing. The system also features “one of the largest Kaleidescape hard-drive based storage systems” ever created, amassing eight servers with 3,816 DVDs. Check out more photos after the jump.

It really makes me wonder how people can afford stuff like this. It could not have been cheap to do all that.

Yes G, that's ok in general off topic chat. This isn't universitylecturehallrequired. com Also you forget this isn't on the counted list.

You are describing 90% of all news posts on the internet.

What? I guess I should pay attention. I SO wouldn't have made the tomato gorgonzola post had I realized this forum wasn't counted

If you noticed, most of my posting is in here, I do it to stay out of the contest.

I already told you I'm not even trying to win anymore because of YOUR attitude towards me.

Re: "My living room is more nerdy than yours"

I am posting, I've started a few threads in the last few days, and I reply to ones that I have something to say about.

Maybe I should go get some lunch and post about it.

There was some guy that did his whole house in Star Trek. I wish I still had that link.

Re: "My living room is more nerdy than yours"

What is truly amazing to me, is Star Trek is completely dead, and TNG hasn't been around for many many years, yet still to this day you see people completely obsessed over it.
