    And that's old news, look at the post date: Monday, February 28 2005 @ 10:27 AM EST.

    Old, fake news too, from the same Dana as has done various Visual Hacks on assorted Macintoshes.

    The site's somewhat dead at the moment, but it's a great read when it's up and running - so long as one's tongue is kept firmly in cheek... ;-)

    (Off-topic: there's a spider currently walking across my iBook's screen. It started near the bottom and now it's sat at the top, just under the 'Window' menu. Oooer!)

    I think he meant not upgrading as in just making a totally different PC and using a case , as opposed to its not an upgrade of components.
    It may be a nice case mod , but have you seen how much the g4 cubes cost , they are still regularly being sold at around the same price of the MacMini

    this is a fake, other than the fact that the pentium M is COMPLETElY incompatible with the cubes motherboard, i know someone who knows the person that runs this site and it's fake u-power probably dose not even exist (impossible to find on google) i'll probably hack a P-M motherboard with a yonah in my cube when the x86 version of OS X comes out and hack that into running on it.
