    Meet > The Gerbil PC ;-)

    various case modifications  ...............

    Some people hate the boring cases that most PCs come in. And we mean hate. So they take matters into their own hands. Here are ten case mods that take the art form to a whole new level.

    (there are 10 different- little articles and pics (cases)  * here's the first one...................

    The Gerbil PC
    The Gerbil PC was built by Florida-based modders Jason Dumbaugh and Mike Lynch. "We searched Salvation Army and Goodwill stores and came across a CritterTrail Gerbil Cage; for $6, we were on our way," Dumbaugh says. "Forty-some hours later (with spare parts from a birdcage we found at a dumpster and various junk from our garage) we installed all of our components into the gerbil cage."   ( kinda looks like an old small block V8 )

      Take a look at some of the other case mods there, too.  Fascinating!  Awesome!

        Definitely not the best looking mod (wouldn't look good on my desk -- aesthetically [tough word to spell] looks good) but it's unique I'll give them that.
