The Hip Office

[HardOCP News]

No, we are not talking about “hip” as in “cool,” we are talking about a device that goes around your waist and holds up your laptop. Could you imagine wearing something like this….for any reason?

We're sure there's easier ways to lose your girlfriend, but probably none more stylish. Enter HK-Ergonomics' Hip Office, a glass-fiber prototype "accessory" that slides elegantly around your spare tire and allows you to suspend a laptop from your waist.

 

[schenks]

Aside from looking like a complete idiot, I want to see someone actually using a laptop when it's in that position.

(HardOCP reserves the right to smack the shit out of anyone using this device while wearing any type of clothing sporting the "[H]" logo.)

 

[Azhar]

lol I like one of the comment. Is it compatible for Macs? Cuz it's worthless if it isn't.

 

[kush]

I'd say Mac people are about the only ones dumb enough to use it .

I'd volunteer to be the [H] whipping boy for the experiment just for kicks. It would make the product seem just a bit less gay w/ [H] involvement .

....For some reason this reminds me of the Family Guy episode where Peter knocks out the cable and straps a pole + TV box shaped carboard to his waist.

 

[DeathCloud]

wow, that is the lamest thing I have ever seen.


/now excuse me while I go hide mine in the closet.

 

[larryBird44]

I've been looking for some kind of stand to use while on the toilet..this may be it.

 

[Methadras]

This is a big negative.

Just use your legs!

The heat from 2.5ghz C2D + 8600M doesn't feel good on bare thighs....How is that for an image LOL

 

[Exavior]

You guys stay the hell away from me. I'm warning you I have a 3rd degree black belt in geek fu.

You have seen what Steve looks like haven't you? He will make your face match the color of your belt.

 

[Vashypooh]

You have seen what Steve looks like haven't you? He will make your face match the color of your belt.

And we can give Steve a mac to make sure the vein in his skull is really pumping.

 

[The Gonz]

It comes with a free subscription to Gaydar

"not that there's anything wrong with that"

 

[Vola]

He'll never catch me on my pimped-out Segway.

 

[Shotglass01]

There's just wrong that can't be undone. Think 2 girls 1 cup, the pain olympics, and this "belt."

Too much visual damage for one persons mind.

Some of the comments on page make the link worth looking at, as I was roflmao while reading this. I hope this is some kind of joke product, but then again I've seen more useless products developed and marketed.

You do realize that if you lower this thing 4 inches, get two pieces of track, some rollers, and a headband or helmet, this thing would double as a blowjob trainer.

Yeah. I went there.

And the rest of us are equally as deprived for laughing at that

You do realize you shouldn't be getting blowjobs from people who need training.

Ty, in your case it might be more useful as a backdoor stabilization brace.

I regret going there.


LMAO

I saw this coming when I first glanced at the pictures

 

[swatbat]

Looks like it would make a good chastity belt to me. No one of the oposite sex would want to go near you wearing that.

Geez you sit that long on the toilet? Ouch!

 

[mustang_steve]

He'll never catch me on my pimped-out Segway.

zOMG, are you ridin spinnas n rockin the iced out gripz, fo shizzle

 

[Fooshnik]

You can sell popcorn from it too.

 

[tesfaye]

Gh3y.

 

[[RIP]Zeus]

\o/ for backdoor stabilizer

 

[CaptNumbNutz]

So you can better masterbate on the toilet?

Dear god man.

 

[wopsang]

Imagine walking up to a woman in the office with that thing on... say good bye to sex forever.

 

[larryBird44]

So you can better masterbate on the toilet?

Dear god man.

lol no way man....That thing would obviously need splash guards if that was the case right?

Anyways, I was joking...that thing is goofy.

 

[velusip]

I have a penis for this. This product is useless.

 

[SamuraiInBlack]

See what happens when you bitch about condoms? Alternative methods of birth control like this get developed.

 

[9mmx19]

Haha so much good stuff in this thread

But this reminds me of one of the Splinter Cell games - I think the 2nd one? - where some of the NPCs had really small laptops strapped to their chest. Is it wrong of me to think that was cool?

 

[mustang_steve]

Yes, it was wrong.....any proper NPC would have had a palm pilot or pocketPC strapped to their arm. These amateurs fail so hard they make Dolph Lundgren's career look like a winning streak.
