Personally, I think this thing is hideous. That doesn't mean you guys won't like it though. ;P

clever, but I don't understand what the black part on the top is for, it would have been easier and better to keep it beige, because most cd roms are beige.  Other than that its pretty clever.

Do you know what else is absurd, tasteless, etc. about that case other than the way it looks? It is absurd and tasteless that the creator of the case actually thinks that it is worth $99 per case.

2 words...

FUCK THAT!

That doesn't look like Tux, it looks like a moronic penguin in a crappy bad drawn cartoon.

OMG! This looks like a penguin on fuckin steroids! I'd rather not have a penguin-like PC case look at me like it's gonna kick my ass! Not having any, thanks.   :D

The ugliest penguin I've ever seen, awful, this is an abomination. This isn't even close to ugly.

Whoever design this thing needs to stop smoking weed!

From here on, every trollish message by Win or anyone else will be edited. If you have something substantial and constructive to say, please do so. If not, as I wrote, your posts will be edited. It's time to become more strict to trolls, otherwise people will start going away.

That's all. From now on, I'll be merciless not only with threads but with individual posts as well. Trolls beware!

Yeah that's right, keep supporting Microsoft like a good  little sheep until they monopolize every aspect of our being.

Actually that controller does have some use - it's just the right weight to break through Windows users abnormally thick skulls.  Although probably too big for it's intended purpose.  ;)

that penguin case i have seen before, i think you can get similar ones that look like a dog and so on that a re slightly better.

i kind of like computers that look like, well, cool looking computers, which many sadly are not.

I have my Linux pride, but i think that may be pushing it.  That things looks goofy as fuck.  I'd buy it for a toddler or something.

Or a door-stop. That GD thing is useless for much of anything else.   :D  

I'm just waiting for the day when the lawsuits start flying over that controller and all the cases of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome that it'll cause. That ought to be quite interesting.   ;)

Which is the uglier POS: the X-Crox or that "Tux" case? Now there's a tough choice for you   (http://tongue.gif)
