dont like it, its sort of iimpressive but also all that thick paint etc on everything - would you actually want to use the mouse/keyboard?

Saw this posted on some other sites this morning as well.

I think it is a very impressive mod. I personally wouldn't like the thick paint on the kb and mouse, but it looks cool at least. More of a display piece than a computer, IMO.

I even thought the mouse at least looked great, I'm not too big one the keyboard though, the couse woudl definatly be hard to use without the paint coming off.

Looks really nice, dunno bout the functionality of the mouse/keyboard but that certainly is amazing.....but might be outdated when HL2 goes on sale....

Amazing...What did he use to sleeve his mouse with? Braided cord? Hmm would the aluminum channel make a good design for cooling?

Awesome Job. Very unique. I like the rough style. It might make the mouse and keyboard hard to use though. Oh well it looks cool as hell!

Looks awesome, don't know if it would be comfortable to use. As was said above, seems more like a display piece than a computer for use. Nonetheless, it's awesome!

They look like water traps that are used in air compressor lines to me. Edit Bingo

If not, they are very similar, and you could use those instead.

Cool case mod BTW, but I agree about the non functionality of the mouse / keyboard.

Why do some people get so much creativity. It seems like the creativity-gene could be distributed more evenly. That guy = 100% creative.....

Me = 0%

WOW, that is not exactly my style, but WOW, I must say I love the design! The effort put into the case and the attention to detail is incredible.

props!

wow

i dont even want to think about all the time it must have taken to design the thing. I would bet the design took longer than the actual construction!

Eeegahd. I'm not sure I would like it for myself...but you have to applaud the effort - it also looks very Fallout-esque.
