Leather-covered PC kit

To add to the incredible proliferation of PC-kit cases available already in Japan comes Freetech's latest, the F-force MP-162GTV. It includes all the usual connections (FireWire, audio and TV outputs, LAN port, etc.), and adds to previous models the ability to play DVDs and mp3s independent of the operating system using etBIOS.

The most distinctive feature, however, is that initial shipments come with a leather case that covers the whole caboodle. Black and brown versions are available; price is Y29,800.
