This looks like a screengrab from Halo 3âs Valhalla multiplayer map. But itâs not. It is, if you take a closer look, actually a fully-functional PC desktop.
The radar monitors your outside temperature. The player indicators are links. The grenade icons launch programs. The ammo counters in the top-right show your unread emails and rss items. The health bar shows whatever music youâre currently playing.
And neatest of all, the ammo counter on the battle rifle itself displays how much juice is left in your battery, should you use it on a laptop.
Rigging one of these desktops up isnât as hard as you think, so if this takes your fancy youâll find a how-to guide over at Lifehacker.
