While Thanksgiving is right around the corner, Christmas is coming up right behind it and will be here sooner than you think. In fact, there are only 35 shopping days left before Christmas so if you haven’t started shopping yet for the geeks on your list, you better get to it.
Besides, geeks love Christmas which is great, considering Wired has pointed us in the direction of the coolest desk ever: “The Han Solo Frozen in Carbonite” desk. Not only will this desk make you the coolest person at your office or in your home, it’ll be a great distraction from whenever you don’t want to do work. It’ll also please any overweight gangsters you might know who are owed money by Han Solo.
You’ll have to pay Jabba a steep U.S. $5,500 bounty for this desk, but it’ll surely be worth it. Check back with The Flickcast all this month for some more awesome holiday gift ideas for your favorite geeks.
