So this popped up as PB Tech's daily steal:

 

 

Believe it or not, it's a router. While I have long been critical of the 12-aerial sporting, "gaming enhanced" kraken-bagpipes that have been in vogue of late, surely this is the ultimate triumph of form over function. It's got a frickin' hole in it for crying at loud!

 

At least there isn't any spin about the hole creating advanced cyclone optimisation of your Wi's and/or Fi's (at least that I could see). But could you imagine having this on display in your house!? "There's a hole in your firewall" would be about the gentlest thing I could say about it!

Gawd, I've just seen the typo in the subject line. If a mod would care to hide my shame that would be A-OK.

Thankfully it's only an Asus hole.

Can you indicate the size of the hole in terms of what sort of creature could get its head stuck?

 

Small child, dog, cat etc.

Would look great next to a Apple Imac circa 1998!  Either 'Bondi Blue' or 'Blueberry'   See the Wiki article for a description and colours.
