Weird PC Cases

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Crazy Computer Modifications

— October 31, 2008 — Tech
PC cases are just boxes, all of which look similar to each other, but for that reason are ripe for creative modifications. Here are 10 of the craziest PC modifications, where the creators hid the inner workings of the computer.

Perfectly timed is the pumpkin case. The CD-ROM drive looks like its tongue when it is in the 'eject' position.

Some high tech fans created the 'Digg' community mod, while other computer users are so disgusted with their PCs, that to them the case resembles an overflowing toilet.

Robot fans will go for the R2D2 complete with 2 two CD/DVD drives, a pop-up WebCam and multiple USB ports as well as the Atlas Battle Bot. The weapon of mass destruction really does look like a bomb ready to go off.

Other fan mods include the car dashboard PC case and the John Deere gas pump whose pump lever operates the power button. One clever mod is the microwave PC case which lets you surf, but not serve, food.

Some of the modifications camouflage the computers so well that the new cases have to be turned around to see the tell-tale parts. Like the old fashioned dial up phone box.
Trend Themes
1. Creative PC Case Modifications - Opportunity for companies to create a new line of products by offering customizable computer cases that cater to individual preferences and unique designs.
2. Camouflaged Computer Accessories - An opportunity to introduce a line of computer accessories, including keyboards and mice that are designed to blend in with the modified computer cases to give a more uniform look to the computer setup.
3. Computer Case Disguised as Household Objects - An opportunity for companies to create household items that can be used as a computer case, such as a lamp, picture frame, or clock, providing a practical yet attractive disguise for the computer.
Industry Implications
1. Computer Hardware - Companies involved in creating and selling computer hardware have the opportunity to tap into the market of creative PC modifications by offering customizable and innovative hardware components.
2. Consumer Electronics - Consumer electronics companies could expand their product line by developing unique and creative computer cases and accessories that cater to users' creative preferences.
3. Home Decor - Home decoration companies can explore the innovative idea of creating computer cases that resemble ordinary household objects while still providing a functional and aesthetic value to consumers.
