a lot of work and quite a bit of craftmanship.

Ya, that case is pretty nice. The craftmanship is great. Usually when someone puts on that many MODS it ends up looking like a Mexican got a hold of a 1992 Ford F-150, a can of spray paint and $300 dollars.

Anyone want to take a stab at the pricetag on that bad-boy? Does anyone know the ingredients/componenets?

yawwwn...

i just don't get it...i can respect the craftsmanship...and even the artistry...but it seems so excessive and such a waste of time. by the time you'd finish a rig like that, your Duron 800 OC'd to 1.4ghz is old news...

i say use the money for better components...i'll keep my bland off white dusty box, and instead of buying some brushed aluminum neon behemoth, i'll get better video, bigger disks or a faster cpu.

yeah, i know what you're saying...i do have MAD respect for the tedius and intricate work modders do...don't get me wrong. just on a personal level..i'd spend my loot on immediate gains instead of the meticulous work involved in remaking a case into a work of art.

guess it's the same story for cars...some people wanna tweak and tune their engines, while others want them to look and sound better. then you have the guys (and gals) with all the loot that can do both.

I guess for some people money is no object. If they can buy the best components and still have tons of cash and time sitting around, then might at well mod it.
