Happened to stumble across this and thought it was pretty funny and worth sharing. Enjoy.

The first thing that went through my mind was 'The Red Green Show'.

I'd not have thought of Red Green until you mentioned him, but having seen a few episodes of that fine production, I must agree!

[Computer Hope Admin]

Agreed, definately like the Red Green Show. Haven't seen that show in ages, did a search for computer and red green show and stumbled across this on YouTube.

lol - I like the "Unplug in the event of a fire"

Actually (Nobody Laugh) I have almost enough spare parts to build a full PC except for a case so I am planning on building a case out of lego. Glued together obviously. I could use these bits with holes in them to create spaces for fans.

Toys 'R*' Us - Here I come. 

* Imagine the R backwards - Why don't they put a button like shift to turn the letters backwards

We can always change Toys "R" Us back to its original name: Bargain Town USA!

or the pirate toy shop. toys Arrrgh us.

heh, I love the way they taped the fan right to the side, so that practically no air flows through, making the fan kind of moot.

if you need a case and your poor and have some card board boxes lying around, why not?  Its not supposed to look good

Agreed, definately like the Red Green Show. Haven't seen that show in ages, did a search for computer and red green show and stumbled across this on YouTube.

I saw that one on tv.  Good show. 

[Quantos]

Ah, that was a damned good laugh.

[jowolf359]

It is really a laugh. I saw one built out of a plastic milk create once. I also saw one built into a wall near a TV as a Media Center.

[neelchauhan]

Very Funny!

Well, if you become a hobo, cover it with a clear plastic bag and you got a working computer that won't clash with the style.

I saw this and had to reply. As this is my first post I hope I am not overstepping any bounds. I understand I am resurrecting this one, but omg. Actually, the posts and comments that followed were almost as good. I especially liked the one about a friend that just kept the computer parts (mobo and all) on the windowsill and was quick to close the window when it rained.

I will say that in this day and age (Free RAM this time last year: 2x512 Crucial ddr2 6400 at Tiger) this soul could spend a day raking leaves and afford a nice case. Case in point, I bought my Cooler Master 690 for twenty dollars on sale at MicroCenter.

But hey, maybe dollars were not the issue here,
To them it made sense.
