  • thecompkid, on 10/12/2007, -5/+169Holy Crap, that thing is huge.

    Good job, though.
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -12/+171Normally I wouldn't give a ***** about a case mod but this is absolutely awesome!
    Well done team!
  • Waterispoison, on 10/12/2007, -7/+137They should have added a button and LED counter so you could digg up the case.
  • nitroskanker, on 10/12/2007, -4/+88Where is the Add To Cart button?
  • XedLos, on 10/12/2007, -7/+67Kevin Rose: "Too bad it's not a MAC"

  • nixonrichard, on 10/12/2007, -8/+42It's rare that I digg a blatant ad for a site/company, but that thing is so damn impressive they deserve it.
  • Chmura, on 10/12/2007, -5/+38just in case it goes down

    I love the remark he left in black text at the bottom of his first post.

  • Urusai, on 10/12/2007, -4/+35Somebody needs to fire you from the Boy Scouts.
  • lordsteve, on 10/12/2007, -8/+33@bnoxiousasshole

    . . . what if a girl diggs you down? She can't be a homosexual and like dicks up her ass at the same time.
  • ThrobbingBrain, on 10/12/2007, -2/+21@lordsteve

    you don't know the right kind of girls...
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+20Oh shut up.
  • bkienzle22, on 10/12/2007, -1/+19I love the hard drive mounts. IMO that's the most creative part of this case.
  • alexf, on 10/12/2007, -3/+19I think it's this one: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/48916803
  • pauljaroszewski, on 10/12/2007, -5/+17It's not a Mac, so I'm sure Kevin won't be using it right?
  • condormcs, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11do the handles mean its portable?
    or are those just love handles
  • Asianwaste, on 10/12/2007, -3/+11Cool design. I just think that even with the handle bars, it's gotta be awkward carrying that thing. The digg ticker is way cool.
  • erics287, on 10/12/2007, -6/+14anyone know the specs?
  • leobaby, on 10/12/2007, -4/+12fixed...
    Kevin Rose: "I bet I can get OS X to run on this."


    Anyways, I like how the drives cascade.
  • Fett101, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7All the cables are routed behind the motherboard. Sweet sweet unrestricted air flow!
  • ZenPirate, on 10/12/2007, -0/+71 gig of ram in that machine is like a Formula 1 car with a 1 gallon fuel tank...
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5It took somewhere around 9 months. Definitely not a normal time period. These off-beat custom cases are typically done on my own time (and money) in between my regular job and computer choppers.

    Can't make it perfect but tried. As stated earlier, the letters on the case don't have the curved corners like that in the logo. I made them before I got a high res logo to look at. At that point I couldn't change the letters due to the lightbox behind it.

    You guys are welcome to send comments at the bottom of the gallery page. I'll try to respond as soon as possible.
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Holy crapola its even got Digg Marked heat sinks!

    This guy is insanely talented at case mods. Now to auction it off for big $$$

  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Good, the question is now
    When are they gonna start mass producing it? and where do we buy it?

    ...ok two questions...
  • jasonsalas, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3If there's a casing for a laptop (I'm pipe dreaming here...), my check's in the mail.
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Ram was just one of those things I neglected. I'll gladly order some now and have it here in a few days....then update the pics again.
  • SHaR87, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4can't wait to see this story on Diggnation!!
  • jeffgoatley, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3If you put two wheels & some handle bars on it you could ride it!
  • SirBryce, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I saw this case at PDXLAN9 this February and was stoked to see the finished project. Only the case and keyboard was done I think. I hope they bring it to the next PDXLAN for the case mod contest.
  • startrek, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2awww, he skimped on the RAM. Only 1 GB? While going core 2 Extreme, 500 GB x3.
  • Misaiato, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5Quite impressive. Hats off.
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Looks great, just a little disappointed by the 1 gig of ram. Should have went with 2 gigs. Also should have went with a 24 inch monitor. Would have looked better next to the big machine. Though the box itself looks awesome
  • Vipersfate, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It's gorgeous! I wish I could create like that.
  • johnnyOnline, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1ironic that i see this finished case on the same day digg.com itself seems to be imploding
  • darkwater614, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3SUPER SWEET JOB ! ! ! !


    give to kevin rose for he has at least on pc lol
  • dn11, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1seems pointless and utterly fanboyish to create a digg shaped case - but the workmanship looks EXCELLENT
  • Tanpreet, on 10/12/2007, -15/+16anyone know where one would find that cool Digg wallpaper that's shown on the monitor?
  • Bojimha, on 06/09/2008, -0/+1That is amazing! I can't believe the amount of effort people are willing to put in for things like this. Top Job!
  • xkrwlng, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1make sure you put this case on your desk right beside your monitor, so that you go BLIND from the dozen neon lights mounted on it
  • Steve95613, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Really nice system and case..but only 1 gig of ram?
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It's right under the words: Digg Case Mod on the link. Sorry I made the font too small.

  • korn91313, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1one would be crazy not to digg this...
  • frozenwookie, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1this thing is awesome, i specially like how all the peripherals and the rig itself are painted in that nice digg-blue, its truly a beautiful mod
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It's the one I submitted a while back. http://digg.com/design/3D_Digg_Wallpaper
    I can't believe something I submitted contributed to this.... wow
  • mayorshady, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1awosme work. That is one case mod that i would buy.
  • cyberdash, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1@Chmura (#6159136)
    Get it? Just in... oh, never mind.
  • mgoblue5453, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1They should put up a set of directions or a size list or something so that other people can build stuff like it or just duplicate it for fun
  • Qwiggalo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+18800s are beta hardware
