Very Impressive, where did it go?

Post by matt719 »

I am incredibly impressed with your new, ermm, homemade computer. I really wish i had the patients/money/skills/tools to do that, unfortunately i don't. So instead, i was jsut wondering what happened to it all? I spent about 15-20 minutes reading every page through. I am really interested ot see how it turned out. Where did it all go?

Here's my latest brainstorm about component layout in the case, I've a few ideas at the moment what's going in:

is where everything's at right now, I just got in some arcade-style momentary buttons, they're not on the page yet, but you should have an idea what's going on at the moment otherwise.

I'll be out of town for the PCAbusers LAN, however. :(

Have fun all

Wow, great thread we got going here. My good pal above goossedump linked me and now I think I'm going to build one for my own.. but I was thinking of going a little differently, any ideas of ways I can go about it? By differently.. I meant that I am trying to think of something else to put my computer in besides a brief case...

mmmmyeh

I was thinking of one of those mini-fridges...

But Im not sure how to stop condensation from forming.. maybe.. put some sort of plastic all around where the CPU goes, and leave the bottom shelf for holding drinks :)

Wouldn't be too hard.

I hope.

Too bad I bet it's been done, oh well, atleast mine won't be the same as anyone elses.
