    Thats looks so realistic, I now want a huge ice cube case!

    How hard was it to engrave that logo as I am looking at doing something like that on the window in my case?

    @maximus09 in teh freezer of course. The intel atom are so low powered and passivly cooled . i added a 80mm fan to teh bottom of teh case to push air up and out the back.

    @ Alexandros The ultimate plan to cool it by real ice. someday when water and eleticity can mixed.

    @Fire Strike not hard at all, sent wife to wlamart had her by me a $19 engraver , printed logo attached under plexi and started following the lines, I practiced engraving a little before i did logo.
