Creative use for empty whiskey bottles

Japala writes "You might have seen computers built inside of toasters, radios, garden lamps etc. As motherboards keep getting smaller and smaller the possibilites on where you can embed then increases. As it turns out, you can get them to fit inside an empty glass bottle. Whisky PC for a whiskey lover that needs a small and silent server."

    So basically you get to drink a bottle of whiskey before building your computer. Does that sound like a good idea to anyone else?

    I thought they were going to try and rollup the motherboard and unfurl the memorysticks and processor once inside.

    Instead they just cut a hole in it.

    Because, as we all know, a noisy server can exacerbate a throbbing hangover ...

    If you're that worried about dropping your computer hard enough to break the glass, then perhaps you should lay off the wiskey. :)

    "I tried to cut and drill couple of similar bottles at home but I realized that my tools are not good enough for it, then finaly a professional glass grinder man prepared the whisky bottle for me."

    Right. Your inability to cut holes in the bottle couldn't possibly have had anything to do with your method of emptying the bottle, could it?
