Mac mini Halloween Mod
Tuesday, October 31, 2006
Do you want to see something really scary? We give you the Mac-O-Lantern pumpkin case mod. According to its evil creators, "The beauty of the functional and organic pumpkin case mod is its fleeting existence. The coolest thing about this project is the fact that such an extraordinary amount of precious time was squandered on a fruitless pursuit. There are better case mods out there, and there are sweeter jack-o-lanterns. We split the difference." Actually, the mod is quite fascinating. It uses a 1.83GHz Mac mini, Logitech webcams and speaker to play scary sounds. It also has a cool looking Apple logo on the side lit up with neon tubing. Head on over to their site and check out the rest of the pictures, video and gory details. Happy Halloween!

They should have used one of those foam rubber pumpkins to do the mod then they could keep it around for a while! _________________ 13' Macbook 2.0ghz C2D w/2gb RAM and 120gb HD

This proves two things.
1. These people have too much free time
2. Geeks are so cool!

I must admit it is a nice mod. But if you look on hackaday.com you will see that someone build a PC inside a pumpkin ages ago. _________________ www.TheRandomOne.co.uk - General random discussion
