Via the all seeing-eye of Dusan Writer, this is the Second Life showroom of Lounge Tek, a Verona-based manufacturer of laptop tables. Since they're designed for use with furniture of all sizes and function, the SL showroom enables you try it out in numerous contexts. It's an innovative use case, though I wonder if a leggy supermodel is the optimal way to test the tables out-- you'd probably want to tweak your avatar to more closely resemble your actual body, first.
