I find steam-punk designs visually appealing in most cases but to me, this looks just like a pile of varnished wooden boxes held together by copper lining and elaborately, yet randomly fitted with vintage parts (though some of it very nice looking).

And a dash of appropriate color on the drives and those nasty blue button things.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[roundgob]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 22nd 2009 4:50AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/22/steampunk-frankenstein-casemod-sure-to-anger-luddites/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/22/steampunk-frankenstein-casemod-sure-to-anger-luddites/</guid><description><![CDATA[a++ for name laura]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[glenskey]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 22nd 2009 4:25AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/22/steampunk-frankenstein-casemod-sure-to-anger-luddites/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/22/steampunk-frankenstein-casemod-sure-to-anger-luddites/</guid><description><![CDATA[definitely look better in anime than in real life<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[darkmax]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 22nd 2009 4:45AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/22/steampunk-frankenstein-casemod-sure-to-anger-luddites/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/22/steampunk-frankenstein-casemod-sure-to-anger-luddites/</guid><description><![CDATA[hey that PC looks like a robot with inbuilt disco lights]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[TechnoGeek]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 22nd 2009 5:35AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/22/steampunk-frankenstein-casemod-sure-to-anger-luddites/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/22/steampunk-frankenstein-casemod-sure-to-anger-luddites/</guid><description><![CDATA[This is a great design.
