Antec Lanboard Review

Posted by Shane Dickson (Oregon Slacker),

Introduction

One of the most frustrating things about going to a B.Y.O.C. (Bring your own computer) LAN event is having to carry your system from the car to the setup area.  This can be particularly exhausting if the setup area is a great distance away from the entrance to the building, a prime example, PAX Prime 2010 in Seattle, with the BYOC up on the 6th level  of the convention.  Trying to carry my system on my shoulder and my monitor in the other hand was a most exhausting experience, not to mention uncomfortable as it was a very warm day and left me sweating for a good 20 minutes after reaching the line.  Today I take a look at the solution to my problems, the Antec Lanboard.  While wandering around PAX, I stopped by the Antec booth and saw this item sitting on display, Instantly knowing I had to try it out.   As soon as I got home and set up my computer, I was on Antec’s website ordering this to my doorstep.

Features:

  •  Supports a fully loaded case of nearly any size (up to 130 lbs)
  •  Perfect for LAN parties
  •  Two front locking wheels prevent unwanted drifting
  •  Includes a convenient carrying strap with molded plastic handle for added portability

Specifications:

  •  Maximum weight capacity: 130 lb / 60 kg
  •  Weight: 2.2 lb / 1.0 kg
  •  Dimensions:    2.7″ (H) x 10.1″ (W) x 16.7″ (D)
    • 68mm (H) x 256mm (W) x 425mm (D)
