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."
I do not see green slime oozing out of the drive bay...
The hard-disk rip out of the case? :)

Maybe we need casemods.slashdot.org ...
Repton.
They say that only an experienced wizard can do the tengu shuffle.
Nobody cares. Casemodding is a fine example of uptardation.
Why would I want a riceburner for a computer, and why would I care if others do?
Geez dude, it's one thing for /. to link to the site, but to go out and pull a bandwidth gatling gun? That poor guy's bill.. *sniff*
paint case black with gray spots, buy alien "action" figures glue figures to case. cut holes in case in a strange alien look, cover with green plexiglass and thats about it realy, its not much of a case mod just typical paint and glue things to the case, the only real modding Is ware they cut a hole in the top of the case and installed a fan under some decorations
Two words...
"Game Over (man)...Game Over!"

Dallas: Something has attached itself to him. We have to get him to the infirmary right away.
Ripley: What kind of thing? I need a clear definition.
Dallas: An attachment. Open the email!
Ripley: Wait a minute. If we let it in, the computer could be infected. You know the quarantine procedure. Twenty-four hours for decontamination.
Dallas: He could die in twenty-four hours. Open the email!
Ripley: Listen to me, if we break quarantine, we could all die.
Lambert: Could you open the damned email? We have to get him inside.
Ripley: No! I can't do that and if you were in my position, you'd do the same.
Dallas: Ripley, this is an order. Open that email right now, do you hear me?
Ripley: Yes.
Dallas: Ripley! This is an order! Do you hear me?
Ripley: Yes. I read you. The answer is negative.
But I blew it out the Goddamn airlock.
bother with a mod. Just pop over to planet LV-426 and get the real aliens to do it for you.
Do not try to read the dupe, thats impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth
What truth?
There is no dupe
Bleh, I'd still take the coffee maker mod over this anyday.
Yeah, but this one is more practical (for some people).
Remember, whenver your power up this system to keep your mouth closed.
You say things that offend me and I can deal with it. Can you?
We should nuke the site from orbit.
It's the only way to be sure.
Even if a man chops off your hand with a sword, you still have two nice, sharp bones to stick in his eyes.
In the 70's and 80's my uncles modded their cars to cruise down the streets and pick up "chicks and sheilas"
I guess this is to entice the girls once in your room ?? Nahh you need to get them there first !!
Your'e all thinking it, I just said it for you
10. "The Matrix". Get an old Toshiba Infinia ("Darth Vader's Toilet Tank") black case, cover it with grease, place green magnetic letters on the sides, and sit back and watch them ooze down the black background
9. "Attack of the Clones". All you need is a lot of PC clone boxes (Columbia, Gateway, Leading Edge, Zenith, Dell, etc. Put stormtrooper helmets on top of them.
8. "Lord of the Rings". This one's pretty easy. Just clear out a space on the desk and tell people there is an invisible computer there wearing the One Ring.
7. "The Hulk". 89 cent green spraypaint case at Wal*Mart, that's it.
6. "Indiana Jones". Everything must be wireless, no cables. Indy hates snakes.
5. "The Empire Strikes Back". Just slap the IBM logo on your box.
4. "The Fully Monty". Just remove the case shell.
3. "Christine". To honor the final scene of this fine Stephen King movie, you need to take it down to the local junkyard and ask to use the crusher.
2. "Battlefield Earth". Just make it ugly. Real ugly, so bad no one will want to see it.
1. "Firestarter". Another Stephen King inspired mod: a flaming PC! Please visit to find out how to cause your PC to burst into flame.
Don't blame Durga. I voted for Centauri.
Because a casemod like this is a purely artistic mod.
Oh absolutely. A pure design classic. Unlike that nasty piece-of-shit Coolermaster that currently houses my CPU, this will look perfect alongside my Eames chairs and Courbusier sofa. In fact, if I get one of these, tear down my Irving Penn photographs and replace them with a Lord of the Rings poster, I might even make next months Home and Garden!
ya but i bet it made him quake faster
"Alien Inside"?
One line blog. I hear that they're called Twitters now.
