PC in a G4 box...

[Kintaro]

I have been thinking of a project to do with computer bits. I have a case with more security then you can set your eyes upon, i have a computer made of fans (Might has well be). I was going to build a computer in a breifcase, but the Chipset motherbored i needed is past my price range.....

So i have decided to build a x86 pc because there cheap... Inside a G4 box!


Anyway I have everything i need, except a G4 box, so if anyone here just happens to have one PM me some details. Im not sure what price im willing to go for either.

Hmmm if this goes well maybe i could make them for a living, sell them on the Internet:

Hmmmmm. Maybe i could put a PC in my MAC Classic

What a waste of a good case. That's like putting an Atari 2600 inside an SGI Indigo 2 case.

Besides, it's been done. It was called the "Rotten Apple", I believe, but they painted the case.

However, there are numerous companies selling cheap knockoffs of G4 cases in the ATX formfactor.

Really? Do you know anyone who's selling them? It could be a fun project...

It looks good, but nothing like a G4... I want an Authentic one.

Yes it will be a rotten apple, but its because the case looks cool. And i want one.
