    That looks pretty amazing.
    I have to admit I wasn't a big fan (ha) the first time I saw the case but that's very impressive.

    Re: Antec Skeleton Mod

    I'm now thinking how you could mod that even more and use it at the base for a coffee table

    Shaped glass top and the cabled going into ducting on the floor. Would be interesting if not practical

    Heat rises...

    Glass isn't too bad a conductor of heat...

    This would keep your coffee warm! or at least stop it getting cold too quickly. I like it

    Re: Antec Skeleton Mod

    you could be onto here something Funk
    all you need to do is fork out £200 on 2 of these cases, and fill each half with quad core processors, and twin graphics cards!
    that won't just keep your tea warm, but probably keep it on the boil.

    Re: Antec Skeleton Mod

    Probably would if you connected some heat pipes directly to the glass surface.

    This is like my project idea of using a 42" plasma as the center of a custom built wooden table. you could then have visualisations being displayed under your food. Came up with this well before Microsoft Surface was released

    Looks nice although it seems to be open on the sides. Wouldn't want anything to get in contact with the insides.
