Guest guest Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 Yep, and here's some more info on it:http://www.theultimatetree.com/howitworks.html#FAQ18They think it weighs in at around 800 pounds!And sadly, you can't buy one either.If you could can you imagine what this would cost?Guess they figured after the proto-type, it wouldn't be cost effective to produce and sell.
khawes Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 Very cool idea.Technology's caught up with him though, as it seems like you could do this after the summer sale with 8 CCB controllers (two strands each) and a copy of LOR S3 with the SuperStar Sequence Editor embedded within it.

caniac Posted June 4, 2011 Posted June 4, 2011 the problem with investing heavily in any one technology is that it is quickly outdated. also wonder if he gets copyright problems with using the Peanuts characters.
