what a well written article. Educational, and entertaining :D

On chroming a case:

Local motorcycle shops... people are always chroming bits of motorcycles so they'll know where it's done. Also they're a bit over the edge so they don't tend to laugh at you when you tell them you want to chrome a computer. That's reason enough to like these guys.

On cutting holes in your case:

I have cut holes in the tops of computers and not removed internal components but it isn't a good idea. There's a tremendous amount of vibration. It's worth the time to remove the metal panels you want to cut.

only related by subject, but offtopic (linked from Tim's page above) ... That has to be the most amazing example of 'brushed steel' photoshopping I've ever seen in my life :)

Hmm... I always thought of doing the acrylic glass thing to my computer cause I think it'd be neat... Then line the top of heatsink with that glow-wire, and the frame of the gasket of the acrylic, with a black case, with custome lettering and some chome parts. *whoa* I really need to get off this medication.

Imagne the effect if you could somehow put that glow wire on the fan blades and watch it spin...

Now imagine your friends staring at it when they're high, stoned, and/or drunk... ;)
