I'm serious. Seal up the fan holes and drive bays with more plexiglass and it would make a fabulous designer fish tank.

Well... it's colorful! But damn it's ugly!... What about these ones from SweClockers.com

BTW, the Zalman is used to cool "5" Maxtor 200GB and one Samsung 120GB! :shock: Why does he need more than a terabyte? I just hope he has a RAID setup!



Oh! And this is by far the cheapest case I have ever seen:

BTW, Thanks to SweClockers.com, I finally found a useful way to recycle our old PC's: :lol:

LOL I like the fish tank idea.... that actually sounds cool given the way it's lit up, shaped and coloured. 8) How about perforating the side windows and making it a hamster mansion? :mrgreen:

Nah! It is new Sony Aibo. This one barks and if it's not happy, can bite you when you insert a CD! It also comes with virtual fleas! :lol:

This is the new Mac prototype, the SphereMac:

...and this is their new "Tennis" webcam:

BTW, One guy on SweClockers named his computer "PaiN". Yeah! With 3 useless side fans, that's an appropriate name! :)

I don't understand swedish, but I think he only has a Pentium 200Mhz, 64MB and a 6.4GB HDD... This should be a fanless PC! :?

The case is supposed to be shown at an exhibition, so the hardware is only installed to power up the bling-bling.

That hottie Kelly LeBrock must have found his juices pretty tasty, she was married to him for quite a while. :)

:shock: That must be awkward, avoiding covering everything in foam! I'd stick it in a cardboard box myself.

I suspect that the Neuhausplatz design was a response to having his PC messed with at a LAN party - can't mess with it now!
