Tomarni


Tomarni is a newly created, Berlin based company is selling high-end PCs. This is nothing new in the industry, but their color cases are. They use powder coding to change the color of select Silverstone and Lian-Li cases for a perfect finish and completely free choice of color. All these cases are taken apart by hand and then painted and coated. Then reassembled by hand once again. Tomarni is thinking of selling the cases alone in the future at a reasonable price premium. The current systems only include high end components with a Geforce 8800 GTS and Core 2 Duo CPUs as the slowest parts available.


There are currently three different sized systems available. The largest uses a Silverstone case and is available with air or water cooling. Even though the yellow one has a window, Tomarni is not very keen on offering these as it disturbs the overall look of these beautiful cases. The middle size is realized in form of a mATX Lian-Li enclosure.


Tomarni's smallest system is incredibly small and utilizes a VIA processor with 512 MB embedded memory. It can take a 2.5" hard drive or compact flash card if you do not want any moving parts. Tomarni is looking into adding a SODIMM slot to further expand the memory. It currently uses VGA and a Parallel port. The future variant will replace the parallel port with a number of USB 2.0 ports and HDMI output.

The following pictures should give you a good idea about the detail and dedication of Tomarni. They took the time to open the mATX based system and showcase the inside for us:


The 7 on the power plug symbolizes that this connector supplies 7V to the fans for a quieter experience.

Roccet


Roccet is a new brand, which currently offers three products. A mouse pad, mouse and keyboard. All three look quite nice and seem to be of high quality. All of these have a blue and black theme, as do the company's booth babes. The packaging of the items is quite unusual as well.
