Exotic Wood Computer Cases

Alien54 writes "Exotic Wood Crafts has turned an aluminum case into a wood veneer case. For those who don't know, a veneer is a very thin layer of wood, in this case, pressed onto the panels of the case, maintaining the strong and stable characteristics of an aluminum case, while giving it a one of a kind wood finish. Lots of pics, some pretty nice looking stuff."

    It would be even better if it was a "tab a into slot b" thing that could be easily taken apart and reassembled.

    If a wood-case gets slashdotted on the web and nobody sees it, does it make a sound? ;-)

    Same here. Wood just makes me think of trailer park fake wooden panelling, cheap porn, and 1960s station wagons.

    Think of all the times you've spent with your computer.

    All the hours of internet surfing, emerging and gaming.

    All the good times.

    All the time looking at pr0n.

    All these years your computer has given you the gift of wood.

    Won't you do the same for it?

    The Special Bonding Method uses a proprietary process.

    What? Proprietary process? Why don't they release their process under the GPL? I'm not going to support a company who uses closed-source case compilation techniques! Open source forever!
