The typewriter is fully functional as a keyboard too.

The laptop turns on by winding the key (which is removable).

According to the creator, the arms and legs can be detached in the event that ol' Optimus needs to suffer the indignity of sitting on a small desk.

By the way, the "belt buckle" is a 7" LCD screen. At one of those geek fairs (where this case was displayed), the screen was playing the Transformers trailer.

As for specs, when it was first created it housed dual Geforce 8800 GTS's (first gen).

And the Doom 3 case:

Like the Optimus Prime case, this won't win any awards for beauty, but it does receive a double A+ for the amount of effort that went into its creation.

Double post, but since I saw console cases here:

Yes, it's a portable Xbox 1. The battery life is less than half that of the PSP's, but who cares.

I've seen a better version of that.

It's great to know now that thanks to microsoft these mods are now banned off Xbox live, isnt it.
ISNT IT?

so you spend thousands of dollars for an Xbox thats exactly the same?
when Microsoft makes tiny changes like that and charges hundreds more?

Elite anyone?
it reeks of gay.

it's not exactly the same, it's sexy. you could get any of the PC's on last page in a bland old case and they would perform just the same, it's purely aesthetics and increasing the size of your e-peen.

Before Zilla shits up the thread:

Next thing we know, we'll have a C-3PO case mod.

I'm not that impressed by simple box-shaped case mods...a lot of people think that they're being impressive by adding those lights and see-thru panels and such...but it's nothing compared to a custom built-from-scratch case that goes far beyond the simple rectangular prism.

And the Hummer:
http://www.streettech.com/storypics/HummerB.jpg

Yes, it still functions perfectly well as an RC car.


here are weird PC case mods, and then there's the Hummer PC (http://www.bit-tech.net/article/139/), a 1/6th scale remote-controlled Hummer model with a 3GB Pentium 4 with 1GB of RAM and a 120GB hard drive packed inside. It even has a Thermaltake Water Cooling system in it! Use it as a regular PC, and when you get tired of spread sheets and fragging alien scum, you can unhook all the cables, grab your R/C controller, and let your pimped-out PC ride barrel down on the housepets.
