Can't get enough Futurama
In Color

Casemod genius!

Jan Erik Vangen, one of the best case modders there is, has built a very nice case-mod. A case-mod is a practice where a person modifies a computer case to give it a unique touch, and some people go very far with it. He built a replica of bender with a Mini-ITX-system and a slot-in DVD-player in the mouth. The antenna on the top is actually a WLAN-antenna, and the arms are bendable. A speaker inside the "case" also spits out classical Bender quotes like "Bite my shiny metal ass!". This case-mod of course got several awards in case-mod competitions.

On the norwegian site, he explains the entire process into making this casemod of his. This is by far one of the best case-mods I've ever seen!

I have a question for the admin of this webpage:
how many hits per day does the webpage get?
I bet everyone who goes on here wants futurama to come back. Maybe You Should write Fox a Letter and tell them your daily hits if it is a big number.
small numbers are far less impresive.

p.s. that case is a waste of time.

I actually went to the same event dressed as Bender, and I posed with the casemod on one of the pictures. See all my pictures as Bender here:
