Design-Your-Own Computer Case Kits

lord black writes "I was walking the aisles of the local Fry's and discovered a nifty computer-case-erector-set-thingy. Made by Aero Cool, the Lubic kit is basically a bunch of aluminum rails, acrylic panels (for mounting hardware to), and misc. screws to connect it all, for constructing a unique computer case. They have a gallery of example cases. BTW, Aero Cool also makes neat CPU coolers."

    Go to hell you mother fucking cock sucker. Casemods DO NOT = Rice Rockets. There IS a difference. Computing should be done with a sense of style and if you've got some really ace hardware, why not show it off? The Rice Rockets are just stupid because there is no really ace hardware (other than maybe duct tape and Rustoleum) in those redicoulus contraptions.

    The ultimate end goal of the case modder PC should be as follows:

    1. Ergonomics is key and bridges the real world and the virtual world of the GUI.
    2. The full experience from start to finish should be satisfying and pleasant.
    3. There should be more than one way to get status from the box. Of course the GUI and the screen. But... there should also be indicators on the hardware itself that indicate the status of all hardware at a glance.
    4. Input device options must be flexible and account for all user preferences. KB and Mouse are OK, but wireless (bluetooth or radio) are essential. IN fact ALL periphs should be wireless.
    5. Convenience takes precedence over inconvenience. If there is any design concept that is going to make the experience, less convenient, GET RID OF IT!
    6. IN this day and age all average desktop systems should come with redundant, fault tolerant storage systems that run independent of the system CPU and OS. All data should be mirrored.
    7. Multi-user capabilities should be implicit and wireless. If you casemod your system , it should have enough horsepower for four simultaneous users. You should just be able to put a wireless KB/Mouse/Monitor combo within 800 feet of the machine and log in.

    These are just a few of my usual criteria when I do casemods. So far, I've designed eight Linux based systems that can do all of the above and my friends and family I've installed them for are VERY happy. So... keep all this in mind when you do casemods. Yu can see that this is NOTHING like the RICE BOY specials that the mulleted morons are driving around.

    We can only hope that they won't reproduce! These are the same dickbrains that entertain whole neighborhoods with their piledrivers and their poor taste in music. With any luck, the stray radiation will kill their seeds.

    Mod me down, obnoxious asshole. I wish I could do the same to you!

    Case modding is cool among the same kind of morons in the geek community as the morons in car enthusiast communities that Rice things up.

    I know a guy who has a nissan skyline with flames up both sides, a yellow stripe over the roof, stickered-out headlights, a body kit that looks like it was made for a car twice the size, and wheels with low profile rubber and suspension so hard that going over the smallest bump throws the car around and gives tall passengers a very real possibility of neck injury from bumping heads on the roof. Not only that but a stereo that's so loud its painful to listen to, and a rear wing that intrudes badly on vision out the back.

    What's his computer? a goddamned neon-covered blue-LED bestowed box with more fans than you could possibly need in anything this side of a 256-way POWER4 box, windows, UV stickers and a paint job that looks like it was applied by a 4 year old with out of date paint and a worn out paintbrush.

    I find it hilarious when faced with the fact a far cheaper machine runs quieter and faster, he uses the excuse of being an individual and putting his own 'mark' on what he owns. Pity both the car and the case mod look like every other ricer and unoriginal case mod out there.
