    I remember when sports car mods were exclusive to VHS rewinding devices. The field of stylistic technology sure has come a long way.

    You guys really, really need to hire some proper geeks. Pretty much anyone who's built their own Computer knows ECS, and anyone who's done much work with computers knows to avoid them like the plague.


    ECS boards are a big part of why PCs have a reputation for being crashy.

    ECS is little known? Granted they're not really the greatest pcb maker in the world, but I wouldnt describe them as that "little known" i have an ECS motherboard in a Athlon 1.3 (thunderbird) system that still works flawlessly after who knows how many years.

    Next we need PC-in-a-Bong/Hookah to make this a multi-tasker. I think the final step would be Ball-In-A-Cup-PC.

    @Monty: That really would be a bottle for a Genie reference like that, wouldn't it? Forgive me, folks - it is still 9am here where I am.


    I like the vase concept, though I assume it is made out of plastic and not actually ceramic material, right?
