What would you like to see a pc in?

[Xiun]

I've seen people make their own cases and all, but I really like the ones where they put their pc in something it shouldnt be in. I've seen them in radios, cardboard boxes, toy cars, and bunches of others. So, for my next mod, I want some suggestions for what you would like to see a pc put into.

[granite_2010]

It would have to be a toaster or a kettle I think...

Would LOVE to see that!

[Stryker]

OK... I've been wanting to try this for a while but I don't think I will ever get a chance so I will share.

I would like to see a standard TV or CRT monitor gutted out, including the screen and everything so just the plastic shell is left over. Then, insert a flatscreen the same size so the front of the screen is showing just as the regular TV/CRT screen would be visible. Then the space behind that could be used for all of the PC components and holes could be cut in the side or top for drives, cooling, etc... It would look like you only have a monitor on your desk, but it's actually your entire PC!!!

I've had this idea for a while but I'm realizing now that I will never have time to do it. Only one condition if you use my idea... SHOW ME PICTURES!!!!!!

I'd like to see a computer put inside a WWII ammo box

[Xiun]

I would do the ammo box thing, but ive seen alot of those. I was actually going to do that origionally, but i couldnt find one that was big enough for me to use my 6800 ultra, but also small enough that it wasnt huge. I might do the tv one though. Just find a broken tv and buy it for like 5 bucks. The toaster one would be cool, too. But ide have to din a big enough toaster...

thanks for the suggestions,

Well, so much for me thinking I have an original idea.

That's the challenge with the ammo box. They're extremely small, and almost to small to put parts in it.

[ktkendall]

How about a toilet bowl for the seat and the components inside the tank.

It sure would make it easier to do water cooling!!

[ktkendall]

Actually I think I'm on to something here cause if I can just also somehow keep the toilet as a real functioning one then I'll surely get rich because I will have eliminated the age old problem of having to get up from the PC the go to the bathroom.

Let me know when you have it perfected...
I'LL BUY ONE FOR SURE!!!

I bet alot of people will. I was thinking of ways to not have to get up also although my idea was one of those tubes they use in hospitals when patients can't go by themselves. That or bedpans. Of course you could just sit on a regular toilet and keep a small desk in front of you with a laptop. And if your going to put the computer into the tank then that means whoevers using it will have to turn around in the seat to actually go unless the monitor is in front. I think a simpleer idea is to have a portable urinal.

[Hi Ho]

I'd like to see a computer put inside a WWII ammo box

HERE is just that.

It would have to be a toaster

They have that too. Look HERE.

Mini-ITX.com has many other interesting PC's.

[xdxproxdx]

heres the best ammo case mod i think:

AMMO RIG (www.zapwizard.com)

[damontgo]

I'd like to see the toaster mods go 'ding' when you turn them on. How about a PC in a mini-fridge? I hate stepping away from my games to make sure i don't starve..

[Punked Out Comp]

Good ocing there but also condensation. Plus, I don't recomend having food and a comp in the same place so it couldn't be used as a fridge.

[shadowbreaker513]

i want to see a computer in a shoe

[Stryker]

OK... here's one I have never seen so if someone has a link to show me one, please do. I think it would look sweet to see a PC built into a propane tank/cylinder. I thought of it in my back yard today when I saw my BBQ.

There is a slight hazard here so I would recommend having it emptied and cleaned by a professional first, but could look really cool.

[Punked Out Comp]

LOL a shoe is a really unique idea.

How about modding a computer in to a fish tank?
or the dashboard of a car.
or a couch.
or clothes.
or a christmas tree.
or a keyboard.
or a vase.
or a porcelain figure.
or a snowball.
or a radio.
or a door.
or glasses.
or a backpack.
or a tree.
or a radiator.

The drive trays pop out of the toast slots to insert cd/dvd, custom shaped like toast.

Seriously though wow, people are pretty darn creative.

They put LCD monitors in regular fridges now. Would just have to put the monitor into the door of the minifridge, when ya get hungry open up and voila.

[Jaggannath]

An ironing board would be something different. I don't mind the car dashboard idea.

[PC WizKid]

I think shoe one will be unique.

[inflames988]

Saw someone say a backpack--that would be cool especially with an LCD or something with it, a totally portable PC
