News Man creates motherboard walls

I have had an old laptop keyboard on my wall too!
This is pretty awesome though. If it were me, I would have the occasional one with a working computer in it too.

 

good idea, bad exectuion

 

The great satan has something similar to that!

 

Kind of cool if you've always dreamed of living in a Borg mothership.

 

Definitely cool looking, but I agree with most on the practicality of it. Could you imagine stumbling into this wall after a night of heavy partying? You would end up with solder tips and capacitors implanted into your face the next morning.

 

For an extra "pizaz" that actually would of impressed me is if they went through the trouble of taking a picture of each mobo, using a "colloge" program to actually make some artwork in macro style, then built the walls to the program. Kinda like those picture, made of smaller picture commercials on tv.

 

Can tell he isn't bringing many girls come can't you.

 

This guy might not realize it, But that is a CRAP load of money he has on his walls!.

You can actually go to labs to get your motherboard's (Any PCB's ) melted down with either fire or acids.
And redeem the GOLD in them.

I made a $10,000 dollar check a year ago, off of 2- 33gl barrels of old PCB boards. Not including the expenses. Roughly, $400.

If all his walls area covered in PCB's, his is freaking Rich!

 

WTF are you talking about?!! change mobo in gold?!

 

I found a wall of motherboards in the show called Eureka (Season 2 Episode 8), airing on NBC and SkyOne(HD) in the UK.

I also spotted this Half-Life 2 shocker in the same episode (the scene was a games store):

I also have some hardware on my wall. But it's not only motherboards:
