Battlestar Galactica Case Mod by Boddaker
http://www.bit-tech.net/modding/2008...ica-case-mod/1

Even if you're not a fan of the series you'll want to check this out. Not only is Boddaker's attention to detail incredible, but innovations like the DVD mounting really set this mod apart from many others. We've got 12 pages and a couple of hundred photos of this mod for you to spend the rest of your day enjoying!

A very nice mod! Why do I want to see the series right now?
A question though, do you have some more info on the 10"ť LCD widescreen monitor?

*Goes off to see Battlestar Galactica...

I agree. Even if he didn't come through with the antigravity.
@Bod - I think your next creation should be a slobber guard for when you take this to shows.
Congratulations in advance for MoTY.

Fantastic mod The attention to detail is just awesome! I love how it looks sleek although it's huge. Doesn't seem bulky at all
And I just love the screens and the slot loading DVD drive.
Btw, maybe it's just me, but the keyboard looks like it might cut into your wrists a bit...

Thanks a lot everyone for your comments! Special thanks to Rich for putting the article together too. I know how much work it was going through all those pics and trying to make sense of it (heck, even I got confused and forgot to send him the final shots lol!)

I got that 10" LCD (as well as the 2.5" LCD screens) from http://www.millertech.com . They sell all kinds of monitors for any application.

Oh, and about the keyboard, it doesn't cut into my wrist at all. You see, this being my gaming rig, I primarily use just my left hand on the keyboard, so I purposely kept that area on the palm rest clear of holes.
