Now I can’t play Mahjong (apart from the Titans version Vista ships with) but that doesn’t stop me wanting this awesome mechanical table that automatically shuffles and presents game tiles.

People working while on treadmills is nothing all that new, but there have been limited pre-built systems available. Instead, users have generally customised their own high-desk.
