Antec Skeleton case mod contest: predictably unpredictable results

, Mar 26th 2009 Discuss [0]

The Antec Skeleton PC case isn't exactly a shy and retiring design in itself, which is why entrants to the company's modding competition have had to reach a little further in order to come up with something eye-catching.  Designs range from repaints, through bizarre furry wings, to doubling-up the case like this spaceship-like concept here; there's also a very convincing All-In-Antec machine.

, Mar 25th 2009 Discuss [0]

Worried about your brand new iPod Shuffle getting scratched up? Have no fear, iLuv has just announced their new iPod shuffle cases for protecting that absurdly small aluminum piece of fun.  The best part is that the iLuv Shuffle cases come in different colors, so if you found the silver or black color a little boring, you can dress up that iPod in white, pink, blue or black from the four pack of silicone cases. Also available are clear and tinted black cases in the two pack. Read The Full Story

, Mar 20th 2009 Discuss [0]

Apple iPod touch 2G owners tired of their PMP expiring mid-way through their favorite track can now slap on a mophie Juice Pack and more than double playback time.  Taking the same approach as the Juice Pack for the iPhone and iPhone 3G, the mophie Juice Pack for iPod touch 2G is basically a cradle containing a rechargeable Li-Ion battery.   Read The Full Story

Steampunk Frankenstein: it’s alive!

, Mar 13th 2009 Discuss [0]

You might remember the Steampunk Frankenstein case mod from last month: an 8ft behemoth of brass, ominous lighting, tricked-out gages and water-cooling.  Creator D.Mattocks has been in touch to let us know the huge PC is now finished, complete with some much-welcome Steampunk tweaking to the drives (which previously were left bare plastic).

Thermaltake Level 10 PC case with BMW Designworks

, Mar 6th 2009 Discuss [0]

Thermaltake have been showing off their special edition Level 10 PC case, created in association with BMW Designworks, at CeBIT this week.  Unlike most cases, which try to fit everything inside one big dull box, Level 10 looks as though the shell has been vacuum-packed around each of the components.

Element Liquid Case for iPhone Review

, Feb 27th 2009 Discuss [1]

Aftermarket accessories for the iPhone 3G have a tough time standing out; it’s a crowded market and if you’re offering the same old silicone, transparent plastic or leather case, you’re likely to sink without trace. Element have certainly managed to carve a niche for themselves, and they’ve done it by carving distinctive cases out of alloy or injection-molded polycarbonate. They send SlashGear two Element Liquid iPhone cases to try out.

Hackintosh Jr. casemod

, Feb 25th 2009 Discuss [0]

This casemod probably won't be mistaken for official Apple hardware, but then it cost a whole lot less than it would to boil a Mac Pro tower down to 5.5-inches high.  The handiwork of modder Widefault, it's a compact low-power Hackintosh running OS X on salvaged components. Read The Full Story

8ft Steampunk Frankenstein Computer case mod

, Feb 19th 2009 Discuss [0]

As insane Steampunk PC case mods go, this Frankenstein machine by D. Mattocks will take some beating.  Standing almost eight feet tall, and bristling with copper piping, vintage gauges and glass indicator lights from an old navy ship, it's not so much a computer as a tribute to H.G. Wells, Dr Frankenstein and the sort of coffin Isambard Kingdom Brunel would've probably liked to be buried in. The vent was salvaged from an old church, and now acts as the air inlet for the water-cooling system.  Meanwhile everything is backlight with green cold-cathode tubes, which manage to make the Frankenstein Computer look even more ominous.  Happily one of the gauges does actually show the computer temperature, though there's probably not a steam blow-off valve.
