Transparent Water Cooling Case

thefalconer writes "Over at the Via Hardware website one of the users there recently posted a very unique case mod that combines all of my favorites into a very cool design. Not only is the case totally transparent, but so are the covers on the hard drives, and it sports a water cooled Dual Athlon XP 2100+ processors. The case and all of the internal mods are entirerly hand made and it looks awesome."

A Step toward the IMac

If the watercooling system leaks, all you need to do is add some fish and you've got an aquarium.
Aw, isn't that cute, he's swimming around my CPU...

Rememebr this?

/. insurance?

With as often as viahardware gets hammered by /., you would think that CmdrTaco would offer /. insurance for these guys.

Isn't this the third time in the last 60 days they've had their server obliterated by us?

It's not so much 'insurance' as 'protection'...

Taco: "Gee, that's a pretty nice webserver you've got your case mod info on. Sure be a shame if somethin', uh, happened to it, like, I dunno, fifty million slashgeeks all trying to load pages from it at once and reducing it to a puddle of slag."
Case modder: Looking disgusted, he hands CmdrTaco a bulging cloth sack with a "$" on it.

I wonder if there really never was any such thing as a super computer.

Conspiracy theory: These Cray folk were really high-end furniture dealers posing as computer salesmen. The machine rooms housing Crays had rows of workstations under the tiles to do the work, while the sysadmins were enjoying their waterfalls, cool-looking couches, and lots of blinking LEDs. The tall black cabinets housed expensive beer, snack mix, and big TVs. Other cabinents had small humming devices and hiding places for party-goers, so passing managers thought the money spent was totally worth it.

Sounds like "win-win" as far as I can tell.
