Those are so awesome, they make me want to run out and buy a desktop computer just so I can have the excuse to buy one. The Alchemist one? *GRABBY HANDS*
Dear God, please let the people at Apple see these and decide that what we really need is a super-retro Mac based on 17th-century design principles. PLEASE.
That one doesn't appeal to my aesthetic so much, but it looks like all of these are custom, so I bet he could make a Mac version of the Alchemist, or even the Gothic whole computer. Y'know, if I had five or six thousand dollars lying around...!
I don't have a desktop computer, either, but one can dream. The Scrabble one is cool, but I'd probably go with one of the Steampunk models (dunno which one, I love them all!).
This brings to mind Kage Baker's Novels of the Company. The immortal automata have Cabinets which permit me them to compute across time: I'm sure they looked a lot like these.
