    Interesting... But what happened to cooling requirement? Also wood sucks as a sound insulation material - it actually resonates rather than dampen the noise from the PSU, HDD, etc...

    Drawer PC doesnt actually look like much of a od, rather the innards of a system sat in a drawer.

    Gotta ask, doesn't a box result in a fire hazard case ??

    I know how hot my PSU can get, aren't you a little worried you're going to burn the house down ?

    The lego mac http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/3034177.stm looks good.

    Easily expanded / customised and best of all will use all the lego that my kids leave lying around
