Got to have one of these!

Penguin Comp. (http://www.baber.com/cases/penguin.htm)

Enough said.

:D

Nice! $100 is a bit much for a case though.

[carrja99]

Oddly... I am sure i could design a better case than that...

The penguin is ugly as hell...

[Zeraxz]

aww.. :(
broken link
*dissapointed*

ah give the guy a break it's not that bad, if it was watts who posted this everyone would be like "oh that's great, wish I had one, it's super duper!!" ;)

[andycrofts]

..in a Bangkok computer store (actually, a mall, full of dozens and dozens of stores!) It wasn't €100, more like €20, if I remember correctly. If I wasn't walking round a place in 40 degrees centigrade, and there was a way to get it in my luggage...

If you don't have one of those, then you are not a true blue Linux user. :mad:

Everyone should have at LEAST one of those cases to prove they are in fact a Linux guru. :p

One day when I get a digital camera, I'll have to post my own pictures of those cases all over my home. Even my server racks with the same Penguin beaks and feet.

I'm a geek not a dork, thank you. If that's what it takes then I'm switching OSes. :D

If you're a nerd and want to show the world you like doing things the hard way you get one of these:

Case 1 (http://colorcases.com/cases/trance.htm)
Case 2 (http://colorcases.com/cases/RedAlert.htm)

Let's see you find matching drives for those.

If you're a geek you get one of these cases (http://colorcases.com/cases/XRayBlack.html). Imagine booting up your computer and hearing it say "Hello, Dave.*" Then shutting it down and hearing "What are you doing, Dave?"*

Note: This is an obvious reference to 2001: A Space Odyssey. It's even funnier if your name is actually Dave.

There are better cases at www.xoxide.com

[nothingbutlinux]

How can you NOT like the penguin case? My god, what's happening to the world??

[El_Cu_Guy]

You could always get a penguin monitor cover. That way you could be a dork/loser...at least until your friends show up :D

I also liked the Xoxide X-Elite (Silver) case from http://www.xoxide.com/allcases.html

thanks El_Cu_Guy & redhat81 ;)

Oh wait...wrong hemisphere...

[Oscarp]

i think everyones being a bit too shallow...

it's what's on the inside that matters, not the outside :p

[Zaren]

Well, I've got this case...

here (http://www.xoxide.com/lianlipc6087a.html)

with this side panel

here (http://www.xoxide.com/liliaqsipa.html)

Of course I didn't pay their price... I got the case on ebay for 100 bucks and the side panel from Monarch Computer (http://www.monarchcomputer.com) .

Yay side panel fishies!!!

As for whats inside... it's just as pretty.

I know you're kinna joking, but I gave it a pretty good looking over before I put it on my machine and all the seams are on the outside and fastened down tight with a metal plate. The only way I could see it harming my hardware would be if someone actually went to the effort of taking off the side panel and busting the back of the water reservoir, it which case it would be just as easy to take a sledgehammer to the case.

It's pretty neato.

Could you put live piranha in so to keep unwanted guests from getting close to it? :D

I wonder...

I could make my system water cooled, and hook the resevior to the water lines. That way he could patrol the area, and I can have my box protected by a guardfish.

Physical security... covered.
