If money was no object what would the ultimate Bachelor Pad look like? Esquire Magazine has the answer, a 17,000 square-foot mansion in Beverly Hills. It's called The Esquire House 360. And I'll tell you the 360 degree view on the outside doesn't hold the candle to the view on the inside. Curious, come inside for a look.

Inside the Italian Villa style mansion is where fashion meets function, rooms are decorated by the likes of Hugo Boss, Louis Vuitton, and Ferragamo. Yet, there is also a hot hi-tech component in creating the ultimate bachelor pad. For instance, this Sun King home theater is utopia for guys, which seats about 20 by the way created by SFA designed for Intel, it features a 92-inch front projector screen, killer surround sound system, and all the TV shows and movies you want streaming from the Internet with the push of a button, all thanks to Viiv technology. You can even pause what you are watching and resume it in another room wirelessly, such as in the 'exercise lounge', you know, to work off that popcorn. I'll tell you being on a treadmill in front of a Plasma TV is a beautiful thing.

Then it's off to the “Mind, Body, and Soul” room to relax; perhaps taking a massage you can play a relaxation game where you can put sensors on your finger tips and you must breath in order to win, talk about Zen in your Den. Play a real game $130 million Batchelor Pad would be complete without a full-throttle gaming room designed by HipHop artist RockWare (ph) with F1 stimulator chair, surround sound, Rumble technology, and steering wheels all powered by wicked fast Core 2 Extreme Edition PCs. We spoke to Kevin O'Malley VP and publisher of Esquire Magazine on how technology has gone from geek to sheek?
