Orac^3 -- Not Your Everyday Casemod

jmke writes "G-nome has finished his amazing Orac case mod, which looks absolutely stunning." An excerpt from the site: "Ever since I saw the first series of Blakes 7 I have wanted my own Orac. For those that don't know, Blakes 7 was a late 70s/early 80s British Science Fiction series and Orac was this intellectually snobbish, difficult and incredibly brilliant computer, hand built by an eccentric scientist. The special effects were straight out of 60's Star Trek and a lot of the props were converted from (or later converted to) props from other classic BBC series such as Doctor Who and The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy (where the Bambleweeny 57 sub-meson brain looks like it was made by the same bloke!)."

    I know it's a tad off-topic, but I always wanted to see Servalan get together with Ming The Merciless. Granted, she was more trecherous, but he had lots more loyal subordinates. Sometimes, killing people for their first mistake isn't the best idea.

    GNAA Ported to XBOX

    GNAA Ported to XBOX

    By GNAA staff

    New York, NY - GNAA (Gay Nigger Association of America) this afternoon announced completion of a project started almost 6 months ago,
    porting of Windows CE.NET environment to Microsoft's XBOX gaming platform.

    In a shocking announcement this afternoon, GNAA representative lysol demonstrated the XBOX running Microsoft's own Windows CE.NET 4.2 operating system.

    "This is quite an important achievement," lysol began. "By porting Windows CE to XBOX, GNAA will be able to create a beowulf cluster of all XBOXes and use them
    to recruit more gay niggers. Next step will naturally be porting our GNAAOS framework to the new system, which will allow us to highly increase our gay
    nigger membership.

    Unlike the Microsoft's custom OS, based on Windows 2000 kernel currently running on the XBOX, with a custom (and somewhat limited API), Windows CE.NET
    will allow running a whole range of Win32 applications on the XBOX by simply recompiling them. Because the differences between Windows CE.NET Win32 API are minimal,
    any type of gay nigger software can be easily ported to run on the new platform. GNAA is expecting to begin work on porting GNAAOS framework "real soon now",
    according to GNAA representative goat-see.
