I think who ever built this spends too much time on computer. Its kinda cool though because you cant tell what it is when everything is closed.

Can't view the link now but I've seen racing Sims with 3 monitor setups, full gear shifts, etc. Immersive is super cool, just like watching a movie in a home theatre or listening to music on an awesome sound system. Being able to block everything out really helps you enjoy what you're doing.

It would be easier to just do your spanking in the closet.
