ION Cube: if the Borg ever started selling computers

ION Cube: if the Borg ever started selling computers

NVIDIA put out a call for fancy casemods using its ION ITX platform. What came back? Well, fancy casemods!

The ION Cube is a design by Bill Owen of Mnpctech.com, and it won first place in NVIDIA's competition. It's a fully functional computer — one that glows, to boot. "The concept reminded me of when LEGOS started incorporating UV Green parts into their "Space" sets in the late 70s and continue to today," Owen said of his design.

how much to get one made?

Cool design if not a little harsh color wise... It'd be a nightmare to work on though, and water cooling exclusive (since fan cooled on a case like that is laughable) would make it even more of a pain.

WE ARE THE BORG. LOWER YOUR SHIELDS AND SURRENDER YOUR AWSOME LOOKING COMPUTERS. WE WILL ADD YOUR BIOLOGICAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL DISTINCTIVENESS TO OUR OWN. RESISTANCE IS FUTILE. ALSO, DO THOSE RUN MAC?

That is totally awesome! I was thinking Borg before I even read the headline. The Borg are the greatest villain to ever terrorize sci fi. ASSIMILATE ME!!! And I want one of those cases too.
