Crazy? No
Maybe a little strange.
Very creative and original.

I wanna see someone build a computer into a toilet (not a working one, of course).

That would be sweet if its a working one


You sit to do your business and the pressure of you sitting pops the LCD and keyboard out.

It would bring a whole new meaning to "Core Dump" if was built from a working toilet.

the processor is only a 400mhrz celeron. but to keep the low tech look i,ve illuminated the insides with 3 small 12v lightsbulbs (not leds) but behind the drives there is a 120mm fan so there is plenty of cooling however if I do switch the fan off it does get up to a whopping 50°celcius full load

Like it

Useless in regards to functionality but for sheer gaul and imagination id give you 11/10

Me, im thinking of the most stupid case effort i could... * by 100 and then i have my next mod idea

make a case completely of .... ice

I'd call it the IceMachine V1.0
Yes, this would solve a lot of problems with cooling as well, but due to melting you would have to stick it in a freezer

Then I'd call it the IceMachine V2.0
Ok, now the problem is i cant really access it if its stuck inside a freezer.. so i decide to make the whole study a giant freezer

Then I'd call it the IceMachine V3.0
Ok, so i have an ice room, but whenver anyone comes inside they cant get over how cold it is so .... with 100,000$ spent it was a good idea, whilst it lasted
