Normally, I would make something like this a part of "Stuff That's Cool;" however, the word "cool" isn't what comes to mind when I see the iNuke.

What does come to mind is "unwieldy behemoth."

Seriously, though: this humongous "boom box," shown at CES 2012 last week, is designed to work with an iPod, and is eight feet long, by four feet tall, by four feet wide.  This thing would take up half the space in my old college dorm room!

The massive quantity of power consumed by the entire contraption will easily come around at 10,000 watts. This can lead to the 'blowing' of your ordinary household power outlet at a single go (thus requiring stages to power up). Moreover, the cost is set at $30,000.

I thought this thing was a joke when I first saw a picture.  But no. It's real.  Here's a video to prove it.
