just pointing this out, but you didnt actually link to the guy's story about how he made it, it was pretty funny-ish/cool
i didnt even realise it wasnt a real case for a wee bit (about the time i saw the size of the dimensions of pieces he was making) it was on engadget a while back

heres the actual link;

lol nice mini ramp though, both of my freinds ones have either a seriously steep transition or no space in the middle

WHOOPS! That wasn't deliberate - just an unfortuante oversight. I have added a link into the story now - thanks for the heads up

Erm... retarded imo...
The whole halfpipe build part was cool, but the computer idea was just too ...dumb :\

They could've at least put some sort of high-impact plexi in front of the monitor as to not have it break the CRT when someone slams their skateboard wheels on it.

As you can see, Geoff's not very good with linking.. these computers all get a bit confusing
