that thing can be twice as small if you swap out the powersupply to something to smaller.

but i do love the semi ghettoness

Cirthix, your Samsung keyboard looks like something I've been hunting down for years. It looks like the one modeled after the classic IBM tactlie 'soft click' keyboards, like the M4(I think thats the famous model) although it doesnt have the heavy 2 pound steel plate in the bottom. If you know what I mean, and it's one of those, could you tell me where you got it? The only thing I can think that it might not be it is these keyboards were made prior to the coloring standard, but better news if they still make em now w/ colored plugs?

Cool! Looks similar to what I've been lookin for but I might just give up and get one of those nifty new logitech gaming kbs instead

cardboard is a good material ;)

the red fan was just for size (120mm)

it sucked when it got soggy one day and sort of slumped over, but then i shredded an old AT style case.

looks like you should get a Micro Itx board and a Pico PSU

Cool.

Flamable much?

Rather nice, but cardboard.. eh, I don't trust anything I can't rest a beer on. This lead to the unfortunate incident regarding the family dog spilling my beer.. rest in peace Lassie.. rest in peace.

Ugly

[seriously though, looks good :rocker: ]

i took out the optical, used a shuttle power supply i had laying around, and shoved it all into a very small box
