I love it does the hardware fit your needs, are you happy the way the machine works? thats what I was wondering =)
I can picture it... Somebody rubs their feet on the carpet and touch the heatsink... BOOM it went... Unless it's grounded.
I think it looks more like this one: http://www.mini-itx.com/store/hush-offer.asp and only $966.58 (£513) for a complete system. BTW, the Mappit case is $1058 (£581). Both more than the $700 ferox has spent. Also BTW, I have a bunch of those aluminum heatsinks. I have an identical pair to the ones ferox used, plus a pair of non-anodized ones. I also have a set of much larger heatsinks: one pair black and pair non-anodized. I also have a bunch small square heatsinks THE POINT IS.... every since I saw this project, I've wanted to do something similar. I was able to collect these heatsinks (for free) but all other parts cost money I don't have. So I wait...and wait...and wait...
www.cfide.co.uk I bought mine from this online store, situated in the UK. He, he! It will be connected to a TV monitor, and if you take a close look at my remotecontroll, you will see that it has an brushed metall finish! It's five 5mm leds placed in holes situated around the edge of the plexi piece. Like this: Yes it does. Only time the machine really works hard is when i'm pausing/showshifting a TV show, but it handles it. I also could have wished a better soundcard, but it does it's job! Of course, it's safely grounded and the sensitive electronics is not in contact with the outer shell. Touching the case will be just like touching a normal computer!
OMG simply beautiful work!! I love the look! That's very nice dremel etching! Awesome work, it inspires us all! DDK
very good work it rivals zaps work. i hope someday i will grow up to be an acomplished modder like you two Btw I am working on a mod myself but I am not ready to post as I dont feel its going rite on track time wise and it would just bore ppl if I take too long Sorry for hijacking the thred ppl
may i ask what that wireless keyboard is and the remote? nice work by the way and i love the use of the passive heatsinks on everything!
It's a "noname", cordless, mini, PS/2, multimedia keyboard with integrated track ball. I bought it from ELFA, they got an englis webshop at http://www.elfa.se/en/ Here's a direct link to the product: HERE The remote is an SRC-9310 from http://sun-wave.com/ . It's an total reconfigurable remote, just connect it to the PC via the USB cable, use the controll software to set up the menus as you prefer. You can also create macros that can be run at a given time. The remote got 16 different menues to switch between so the potential is big! This is the only remote i use right now, it has replaced all of my other remotecontrolls. The package content. It's BIG, but it's intended to lie on the table when operated, and if you operate it with two hands it's no BIG deal! -After all it's intended to replace the keyboard in most situations. Here's a "screenshot" of one of the menus i have configured, this is the first page for the reciever.
I got a sugestion for your mod. Why dont you incorportae the ir reciver inside the media pc so this way u got less cables runing out of it.
that remote looks quite good, what software do you use on the pc to control it? would it control something like myhtpc do you reckon?
Just kinda curious on where you purchased that remote. If you goto their site there isn't any kind of resellers list. link please? thanks!
wow, nice work, ive wanted a case that looks like that ever since I saw the hush computers. oh, btw, which heatsinks did you get, and what are thier dimensions?
