Crazy Case Mod

If Newegg weren't it's sponsor, I would have like it more, but there was so little left of the original Xbox, I don't see why he didn't start from scratch?

where is the dvd drive?

Nice one, good video Thanks.

I'm not sure if anyone here saw this, or read about it on Engadget. But this case mod has to be the sexiest thing I have ever seen in my life.

Not to play the one-upmanship game but if you are into case madding you have to check out this link....Cygnus X1. - Page 51 - bit-tech.net Forums.
I have the link on page 52 but if you check it start from the beginning. Many people have been following the build for sometime now and he is almost done.
Teaser:

Nice! $1500. Parts only- I hope . Lots of work in that thing.

It's crazy what people can do these days, but makes you wonder how come they aren't out designing computer cases for big companies?

I didn't even think about that until now. While it is a inconvenience; it doesn't need a CD Drive, considering nowadays you can just rip everything from a CD and put it on a thumb drive. IF you really need something from a CD. But, a DVD Drive is different. But just depends if you watch movies on your computer, or use a DVD player. So it isn't necessarily a deal breaker, but it is a let down.

USB/eSATA drive?

Yeah but doesnt it defeat the object of cramming all that stuff in to such a small space to have an external drive hanging off it
