The first-ever Windows PC Holiday Showcase was a huge success! Over 40 press, analysts, enthusiasts and contest winners joined me, Brandon, Ryan and dozens of the season’s hottest Windows PCs for a night of great food, cool music, and fun gadget talk.

Check out the video for a quick overview of our favorites (including the crazy-awesome ORIGIN Big O!) and a look at the beautiful 12 Gallagher Lane art gallery. I was particularly fond of the lit pedestals we used to display each PC – it really showed them off as pieces of art:
