It's real, and it's spectacular.
This week's Forum Feature gives pride of place to Bill Owen's amazing Star Trek PC, which is finally finished, packed up, shipped out, and now living in our offices for a few weeks while we cram it full of beautiful top-notch hardware. Then we're gonna bring it to Comic-Con and GIVE IT AWAY. Because we love you. David Gerrold—Maximum PC columnist, science fiction legend, Tribble inventor, commissioner of the case and recipient of its twin—will be at our booth at Comic-Con this year to sign autographs next to his aluminum child.
Check out the shots of the completed case in the build log on our official forums, and at MNPCTech's website. We'll have more details as Comic-Con approaches, plus a full writeup on the build in a later issue of the mag!

Is it Transwarp capable? Transporters? Capable of atmospheric navigation? Can it land on a planetary surface like Voyager could? How many phazer banks and what level phazers is it equipped with? Forward and Aft Photon Torpedoes? Quantum Torpedoes? Is it actually equipped with toilets other than the one in the brigg that Capt Kirk and Spock were imprissoned in Star Trek 5 The Final Frontier. Capt Kirk pushed a button and the toilet retracted or something like that. That is the only toilet ever shown on any starship throughout all the episodes and movies. If I remember right I didn't see any toilet paper so the poor crew of the Enterprise had dirty crap encrusted asses.
Hell just give it away to me. I'll take it and be happy.

Looks freakin' ah-mazing. I wish I worshiped Trek instead of Wars right now.
