The floppy drive doubles as the drawbridge.

I would think that any computer that uses a "Fisher-Price" GUI such as Windows XP...




would be put in a case like this...

Because I like you guys so much. But mostly because this is a Mac site and therefore nobody of importance will ever notice this spy photo of the world's fastest personal computer� in its early development stage. Hillbilly Technologies ownz. flat out. nuff said. Dual AthlonXPs refrigerated by a 1450 btu/hr phase-change / water circulating chiller. Programmable temperature controller accurate to .1F from ambient thru 25F. Slide-in TEC modules (2 for each waterblock) allow for 0F operation. Blurry spy photo shows chiller unit minus its polished aluminum case.



now there's a casemod.

So when does Hillbilly Technologies go public?

What will the ticker symbol be? HBTN?

Be sure to let me in on the IPO!

Damn dude, that's bad ass. Fox should make a TV show "The most bad ass case mod you can make in thirty seconds". You could win. The prize could be a few porn vids featuring redheads.
Yeah, Jesus saves! Gretzky scores! The workers slave. The rich get more.

Hillbilly Technologies is the fictitious company that I hide behind. Been in business since 1998. World leader in copper-themed computer hardware. "Second-to-none", I like to say.

It also happens to be the name of an ultralight aircraft, so I've noticed.

All I know is somebody needs to make the fastest PC in the world...may as well be a southern cracker-ass like myself. Doesn't look like the yankees up north have anything to offer. Getting tired of losing to the Japanese and their PLL-IC breakout box manually adjustable clock generators and hardmod voltage tweaks.

Gas strut lifts optical drive. ownz.

No, actually my only apps are chimera, word, and iTunes. The redhead is getting away, she's getting lonely, you should start stalking asap, her self esteem is dropping at an exponential rate. She needs creepy guys admiring her to feel good about herself. I hope she doesn't sleep with a gun under the pillow. You will be toast.

that redhead picture was creepy, stalker.

Well, as terrific as I think that castle-PC is, my favorite is this case:

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in one
pretty and well preserved piece, but to skid across the line broadside,
thoroughly used up, worn out, leaking oil, shouting GERONIMO!"

I'm giving the credit, while choking it up...

Spliffdaddy, I -REALLY- like that PC, but I don't think I'd want it in my room.

Perhaps without watercooling, but meh, it's still pretty awesome.

Now take that castle and stick a g4 in it! ROOOOOOL:

Btw: If you don't stick floppy drives in your machines, I might be considering one in the near future for *n?x serving in style (provided you wouldn't mind sticking a set of those panasonic 815 laptop slot loading superdrives in )
In a realm beyond site, the sky shines gold, not blue, there the Triforce's might makes mortal dreams come true.

you know. i thought upon looking at the other pictures that we would see some fat everquest nerd with a "all your base" shirt on or something. but it almost looks like the owner of this computer is doing work. or his banking. or something.

Man. It's ... interesting. Don't know if I would want a castle computer on my desk. I'm not 1337 enough. Maybe Samus's ship as a case-mod. Oh yeah. J/K Really, J/K.
