The Bandi Scarab is one of the most monstrous computer mods you're likely to see. Created by Paul Bangdiwala, the Bandi Scarab is a unique computer that uses its components to shape itself into a giant, spider-like monster.
The legs of the Bandi Scarab are the only part of this computer that serves no real computing function. The eyes of this computer double as its fan while the teeth are actually wireless antenna used with the motherboard. Bangdiwala's design is unique in many modders prefer to stuff their computer's gut inside of an interesting case rather than turning those guts into something interesting themselves. You can see pictures of the Bandi Scarab here, and in case you were wondering, it is for sale.
