can we say HOLY CRAP!!!! Man, that alone is going to make everything I do look like crap, lol, but I'm not using a clear case either :rolleyes: . I thought about getting both side panels traced and cut out in plexi so I can do some cool stuff to em, but then I thought, "hey, the Tsunami would look good with metal and plexi, I just have to think of a cool design to cut out of the panels". Well, I've thought of a couple, one being a curvy starburst pattern (would be very very difficult to Dremel out though) and another that's a complete secret, and I might actually use it. t'would bring a tear to Nate's eye, or make him roll on the floor laughing his ass off, lol :rolleyes: ; that remains to be seen heheheh 8)

ooohhhhh, the secrecy!!!

And thanks for the project link, it's a goodie! That's some very tedious/painstaking work with all those stickers! I saw this case pictured in Nates QuakeCON article a while back. I remember him being a little woried about the whole "kill teddy bears" theme, lol :P

yeah, those guys are fanatics. I saw a lot of other interesting stuff there too. they don't seem to worry much about the performance though, rather the look...

Sorry if I'm being a party pooper, but after the years I've spent ogling the creativity on mini-itx.com, normal case mods just don't seem to have much an effect on me anymore. :P

ToAsTOr anyone? :lol:

From very cool, to just plain absurd: :rolleyes:

And of course... these...

Not a case mod, but interesting, lol:

you think you're outta the loop, lol. crap, that's something crazy, to think you can keep decently low temps in an enclosure designed to keep heat in...who knew? couple that along with the R2-D2 case I saw some time back and it makes my attempts look like junk, lol :rolleyes:

New York eh? I'm originally from Long Island- Bellmore area. Anyway, just saw that and thought to myself that it's really a small world, lol.

dude, that's just a disgustingly awesome case mod... i wish i had the resources by which to make a sweet case like that. i'd do something other than a teddy bear, though; i need try and keep it original (as in, this guy already did a teddy bear, so i need to do something else).

the world is small eh? I was born in hungary, lived in Germany, Poland and for the last 20 years in Canada. one of my sisters live in England, my father in Sweden, my mom, borothers and one more sis in Pennsylvania, New York (Staten Island) and Florida. how much do I have to travel to see them all from time to time? wish the world was smaller :( :shock: ...

lol, well, I guess the world wouldn't be small to an old man, lol :finga: (kidding, just kidding, though it's coming from someone much younger, lol :rolleyes: ).....actually, I'm never able to get out to see my family in NY because of work all the time and school, not to mention the "destitution" brought on by going to college...but yeah, it could be a little "smaller" or I could be a little richer, heheh :lol:

HEHEH, yeah the world is sometimes too big and sometimes too small (take it from an old guy, sitting in front of his computer and waiting for his pension check :lol: )
