Wood is nearly as passe as electronics for computing. Get a modern, all-plastic computer.
Yeah - you don’t get viruses, you get termites.
I thought it was going to be a pencil or an abacus. It’s awesome. If I could read Russian, I’d see if it’s what I need and I’d put it on my christmas list. Gawgeous!
Wow! I’m impressed with Gorsnak’s case and the computer linked by the OP. Beautiful! I’ve got a friend who builds speakers, and he’ll just love checking these out. Thanks!
Some of you young whippersnappers seem to be forgetting that a couple decades ago, many audio components had wooden cases, and there were no overheating problems with those.
As for the Russian case, good in principle, but I don’t personally care much for the styling; something a little less frilly (but retaining the inlay work) would be preferable.
Also, love the tag line for the Digicomp: “See logic in action!”
I’ve often wondered why CPU’s weren’t more attractive. Hell it took the industry 15 years to market a case that wasn’t putty-colored metal.
I don’t particularly care for the Russian styling either but the concept is good.
I happen to pass the url to a friend of mine. He commented that if you leave the PC on for, say, the entire day, wouldn’t the foam backing the hard disk melts or something?
Eh? There’s no foam backing the hdd. But even if we were, the answer would be no. The thing is on 24/7, and there’s never been the least issue. Nothing in my case is getting past 45C or so, except the cpu and gpu and their respective heatsinks, and even those are well within reasonable temperature ranges. To melt foam would require rather more concentrated heat.
