Alien Case Mod

apatheticloser writes "The Ultimate Computer Case Mod Website has a casemod inspired by the movie Alien. The website gives specifics about the computer but doesn't give instructions on how to build it. I think its a great way to show appreciation for a classic film."

  1. Case Mods... Uuugh. by BrianRaker · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Honestly I'm not sure what to say about the whold case modding scene. I can understand a couple lights on the front of the case, maybe a LCD panel. But things like this make me wonder about the people who do these 'extreme' mods to their cases. I personally see (I've got my flame retardant undies on) that this is getting to be a waste of time, the whole modding scene that is. Honestly, my computer and the computers of nearly *all* of my friends never see the light of day outside their desks except for hardware upgrades. And then, it's for a very short timespan. I'm sorry, I just have to say *uuugh*.

  2. Hmm... by lvdrproject · · Score: 0, Flamebait
    I'm not one of the people on here that thinks all cases mods are retarded wastes of time (i only hate them when they look really stupid, or didn't provide any sort of challenge), but....

    There's no question that that took a LOT of time, and that it achieved the effect that he was going for. But aren't case mods supposed to make the case look... better?

    Given the state of many of the mods that appear here, the smaller the audience the better. If you are going to make a tit of yourself its better to do it in the privacy of your own home rather than become the prime target for all your colleagues jokes.

    Could people start spending more time doing something interesting with their computers than simply decorating them?
