That reminds me of He-Man or something... What is that from? It looks familiar...

In any case that would make probably one of the coolest old school mods ever!

I don't think I can really mod it. Only a mini ITX would fit and it would just look stupid. Maybe I can mod it into a test PSU

Well you dont HAVE to use it for a computer. If at the very least you can paint it and put lights in it. Just to make it look cool.

If I had it, as well as skill, I would take a game console and put it in there. Paint it, Light it, make it look scary and realistic. If at the very least it would be different. Which is always fun.

or... you can put a commodore 64 in it. :D I had one, I dont know where it is now though.... those things are amazing. I had a game that was called Tooth Invaders... lmao now that was interesting!

EDIT:
Also they have a computer that runs linux at the size of a large dye. ..or die. However you spell it. ...I think it ran linux? Didnt it? Its like 450 bucks though...

Oh dude... holy freaking god. That is bad ass! Sorry for my mouth... I am feeling a bit out of it today. But seeing all that certainly cheered me up a bit!

You want anything? You can just pay shipping!

MitaPi
09-07-2006, 05:34 PM
AH! That would be so cool! I LOVE old technology, unfortunately I can't afford anything with my new upcoming project "Audeamus". Its costing me an arm and a leg! Conroe, SLI Conroe Mobo, Dual XFX GeForce 7900GT, Antec TRUEPOWER II PSU, dual 320GB Seagate's, and then of course the cost for the material to build the case that will surround all that beautiful stuff! But thanks for the offer anyways. I'm sure there is someone else out there as crazy as me that will buy some of those off yuh :P Which they should btw.. lol shipping only is awesome... but those babies are collectables! Heck.. wait 5-40 more years and they will be ancient collectables! $$$

Man that takes me back...got that for christmas one year...sold it about 6 years later in a garage sale. He-Man was so cool..."By the POWER of GraySkull...I HAVE THE POWER!" I remember that you could put He-Man and Skellator's toy swords together to form a super sword. Good times...:)

wow, TGS. Nice old tech there man. I've been trying to set up a little collection of my own, but everyone seems to have thorwn most of it out (such a waste), if you have anything you would like to get rid of let me know. I think its about a 250 mile drive for me to come pick it up, but hey, with my dads car it would be cheaper than shipping I'm sure :P.
