Win the big Quake Q from Planetquake

The big Q greeted guests coming to GameSpy for nearly five years. I really can't express to you how awesome this thing is: it's over a story high, and big enough for a couple of people to walk through side-by-side. There's an electric red light built into the spike on top that shines down on what's below. On the insides of the two arms of the Q are shelves built in, so it's the perfect place for a company to display products. There are little portholes built into it that can house pictures - right now they all still have the BeatDown 2000 logo (a mushroom cloud, since Y2K meant Armageddon, natch) but they could be swapped out with anything.

Would be quite amazing if they could balance it on the tip, no?
