Very cool, however I know I have seen projects like this before? Is this yours? It would make a nice LAN box.

Wow, i'd love to build something like that but i'd be too scared to fiddle with the LCD Monitor like that.

Nice mod...At least this one makes some sense. I don't like to see people cutting holes in their cases just to look inside and stuff like that...

I was thinking something like that - wow, it's like an iMac, but it doesn't suck! Nice!!! :D

But geez, so many fans? Wow - that's gotta be the noisiest "monitor" around!
We need some high-res pics of the finished product too!

No way, this ain't my mod... I would never crack open an LCD like that.

I wanted to do the same thing... this guy had a good idea but, IMO, his end product is ugly.

Hmmm... Eight fans and five removable media devices... I bit of overkill perhaps, but it's his machine - he knows what he needs to use on a daily basis more than we do. I likely would have nixed the card reader, floppy, ZiP, and one optical drive. Then I'd have had a Samsung or LG CD-RW/DVD-ROM combo drive on the lower right, while moving the Soundblaster Audigy panel to the lower left edge. Then I would have used only four 120mm fans, one on each side for intake, two on top for exhaust. Green isn't my favorite color, but I think that part looks fine. The multitude of black face plates is pretty distracting - perhaps if they had all been green as well it would look a lot better. No doubt though, this is an excellent modification project, well thought out and executed with superb attention to detail and planning. Well done!

HUN-YA!
