If I get anything, it'll be a kegerator since she liked the pics of the ones I showed her with nice stained wood trim.
You can always use a temperature controller and have it as a fermentation chamber when necessary and then keg the beer and switch it to a kegerator. I've done that with mine, it's basically serving as a beer fridge now until I get the standing freezer that I'm going to turn into a kegerator/beer fridge.

Yeah, may do that. was really trying to figure out a way to do a combo. I saw two plans for that.
One used some insulation to make a seperate area the size of one carboy with a heat lamp setup in there to keep the temp up in that chamber while the keg chamber was kept cool. Seemed like a fire hazard and waste of energy w/ the heat/cooling fighting each other, but a good idea.
The second one was a guy who build a cabinet on top of his chest freezer w/ 6" diameter tubes connecting the two. His theory was the hot air would naturally go up (he used some fans to help). He never reposted so I guess it didn't turn out well.
