At least he gave the parts to a Mac Head, hopefully, his friend can get it working in a spare G5 case, or contact Apple for an extra case.

Sad... 
.
This is one of the saddest things I have ever seen. Man... it isn't even funny unlike the people reusing a cube for an aquarium. Yes, Darwin Awards... I like that idea!

People like this shouldnt be allowed to procreate. When i saw this I felt like throwing up and as if someone had kicked me in the crotch. Soooo sad.
is there anyway of getting a hold of this person? have a thing or two to say to him. ungrateful brat.
Man, I wanted a Kia for Christmas, so my parents got me a Farrari and I ripped it appart and put a Kia under the hood! I'm so proud of it! It looks awsome, but it's ****! Hurah!
I love his taste in computer inerds, look at the crappy little neon light. I want to kill myself. I wonder what he did with the procs and motherboard?

My parents just picked me up a BMW M5. The drivetrain is a piece of junk, although I think it looks damn sexy. Gonna get a crate Ford 4.6L V8 and put it in. I'll show those damn Bavarians how to build a car!
His email address is at the bottom of the second page.
For those of you that the link is not working for just keep trying it will work. The other option is to delete everything after the last / sometimes that works.
Quick reply. ..
The website already got farked (too many people went there and overloaded the server.. ) so i didnt get to see it. Sounds bad though.
I just wanted to remind the poster above that it IS possible to rip dvd's using OSX. Not sure of the success rate, but I downloaded it to try with one of my legally purchased DVD's.. actually a friend gave it to me years ago and it would rip about 10 or 15 minutes and then the program would crash. Bummer too cuz the resulting avi's were really nice quality.

I completely understand him.
My dad bought me a 1980 Firebird, but I had my heart set on a Pinto Runabout. A week later, after I carted away the rubble, I HAD my damn Pinto. (Even though it later burst into flames)
He's be supreme leader of the bizarro world Mensa. And I wouldn't waste any e-mail's on him, as I'm sure he's convinced 1+1=3 and not about to change his mind.

God please god strike him down now and make his underpowered on board graphics main board die. Man this makes me mad its not even a good mod not at all if he was smart he would at lest get a AMD 64 FX chip and main board that will fill the case entirely. The port cutting is badly done he didnt even take his time to file down the edges !!!!!! it gets a 0 out of 5 what can i say Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep i am an ok moder and i could of done better and there are tons better cases to use for pc's if he wanted a dell he could of built one under 300 if he wanted to. Just a waste just a waste what is the world coming to ?
Wow.
Words just can't do this any justice.
To say that this is the most braindead, imbecilic computer mod I've ever seen would make it the biggest understatement I've ever said.

Actually that 4.6L crate motor wouldn't be too bad in the BMW... especially if you're talking about the punched out 5.0L "cammer" crate engine.Originally posted by MoparShaha

Would probably be best, since it is made for engine swaps into non-standard applications.
ouch
that is pretty messed up...
but i do think that internal light thing could be cool if it was done with a touch of class...
later.....

It just makes no sense that he rips out all the great hardware and replaces it all with vastly inferior technology and talks about how great it is. Especially since all he wants to do with it would have easily been done with Mac OS X and probably with a much better experience.
