Do you need to pimp out your dorm room? Are your pets leaving because your apartment is so bland?
A touring group visiting the UA Mall today has the perfect solution to drab accommodations.
The TechKnowOverload Tour is showcasing the latest in consumer technology for tech-savvy students. The tour includes five or six tents, which will feature products from Sirius, Nintendo, Toshiba, Adoba and Gibson guitars.
In addition to the cornucopia of tech toys, students will also have a chance to win "The Ultimate Dorm Room" from the sponsors of the tour, worth between $7,000 and $10,000, said Colin Cadogan, TKO tour director.
The winner will receive a variety of consumer electronics products including a Toshiba 34-inch flat-tube high-definition television, a Gibson Les Paul electric guitar and a Niro plug-and-play home theater-in-a-box system.
"They walk out with some pretty cool stuff," Cadogan said about previous grand-prize winners.
