welcome ladies and gentlemen to the Leon Lee Yacht Club thank you to Squarespace
0:05
for sending us here to CES 2016 check out their Link in the video description
0:08
down below so yes it's official much like the train Leon Lee just made a
0:12
yacht that you can put your computer in absolutely ridiculous the specs of this
0:17
thing are pretty solid there's an sfx power supply there's an included 120 mm
0:21
fan ITX motherboard mounting you need a riser cable to go to a graphics card
0:26
which actually sits below your motherboard there's mounting for 2 3 and
0:29
1/2 in drives or 2 and 1 half in drives if you want those to go there um one
0:33
thing to note as well is this is not the final version this is a prototype so
0:37
along the boat for example or the yacht I guess I should say there might be Port
0:41
holes with some meshing on them so it breathes a little bit better and maybe looks a little bit more true to life
0:45
speaking of true to life that's all there really is to say about it other
0:49
than just looking at it aesthetically it's made out of full fairly thick
0:52
aluminum it's honestly quite impressive but I don't see this working for
0:57
everyone obviously much like the train not every single person is going to want to buy this I would see its target
1:02
market maybe being like that guy with the poofy leather chair and the really
1:06
big desk with the office who actually owns a yacht and wants his computer to
1:10
look like his boat or ship or yacht or whatever the proper ter terminology is
1:14
for it but if he can't make it look exactly like it I'm excited for this for
1:18
modding the BS mods guys are literally right behind Brandon right now who's
1:22
filming this video and I think they would just go to town with this so if
1:25
you know someone who's got some money got a yacht or something and they want
1:28
to have a nice computer that looks like their yacht get them to get one of these
1:32
cases and bring it to a modder or maybe you yourself and turn it into their ship
1:37
and then post pictures on the Forum or something because that would be absolutely sick I love the idea of
1:42
bringing creativity and computers together and while looking at this at
1:45
first you might be like okay there's exactly one way to build that that may
1:49
or may or may not be true in terms of where you put the components but there's
1:54
a lot of modding that can be done to the case itself if you want to like change
1:58
the anchor out or make it so you can pull the anchor down and pretend you're
2:01
anchoring your ship somewhere maybe if you want to make it actually able to
2:04
float I don't know that would be super sick and in terms of customizability on
2:08
the back of the ship on the left hand side there's three dials for the
2:11
brightness of RGB so red green and blue
2:15
individual dials and you can mix them to make colors in between next up we have
2:19
the dk4 which is their standing desk
2:23
adjustable height version of their desk computers this is pretty cool their desk
2:27
computer before had some complaints because it was rather its depth was
2:31
rather high so your knees might go into it or something like that so this has a
2:34
nice combination of being able to adjust to exactly where your legs are or turn
2:38
into a standing desk and they've changed the form factor a little bit so that
2:41
there's kind of space under there for your knees to go which is really cool
2:45
the depth of the computer which has a vertical graphics card is in the back of
2:49
the standing desk so it should be away from where your legs have to go and I
2:52
think it looks absolutely beautiful with a glass on top and stuff like that there's two angles you can go with a
2:56
computer desk you can have it so it's viewable from the top like they have
3:00
with the glass top and all that kind of stuff it's going be much harder to do on your own or you do line this thing where
3:03
you bolt it on the bottom it's just it's up to you so what do you guys think
3:07
about the yacht computer let me know in the comments down below are you part of the Coast Guard or the Navy that was one
3:11
of the BS mods guys ideas if you could get a ship modeled after the one that
3:15
you actually command or something like that pretty freaking cool maybe contact
3:19
them about making a really cool system in one of these guys anyways thanks to
3:23
Squarespace for sending us here to CES 2016 this year if you want to have a
3:26
website about what how do you make a joke on a
3:31
yacht you want to have a a yacht club website you can probably actually host
3:34
that very effectively on Squarespace you have a sign up form you could sell
3:38
memberships using their Commerce module you could do tons of stuff you can
3:42
change how it looks every once in a while if you're just unsure about the
3:46
aesthetic you can change the template rather easily if you're having trouble
3:49
with it because you like boats more than websites they have 247 live chat and
3:52
email support and if you sign up for a year you get a domain for free although
3:56
if you own a yacht free domain might not actually entice you that much because
4:00
you probably have gratuitous amounts of money anyways thanks for watching thanks
