Bob_c_b inspired me to clean out my case earlier this month, this was the best I could do:

It looked cleaner closed:

It was all looking good until I plugged it all in. Smoke started rising out of the motor and basically it blew out.

I was forced to wait until the next payday, which was the 15th. So upset. Payday came by and I decided to get a nice Antec case.

The PSU in this one totally owns my old Raidmax one.

So I went from this:

To this:

Thanks. I designed those when I was 12 and built them with my father.

I like your new desks, congrats!

Is that a cheiftech case? If yes, how is it? Could you take pics of the inside? I'm thinking of getting one of those.

That particular case is made by ULTRA although it is almost identical to cheiftech models. The only difference between the cheiftechs and my ultra is the ultra has a gloss black front bezel and the entire chassis is made out of steel (i found aluminum to be too flimsy).

This review has some good pics http://www.driverheaven.net/reviews/UltraCase/

Is that an original lucasfilm THX poster I see in the background??

yup.

looks much better now ;)

Feels much better too, since my old desk wasnt a computer desk at all, it was very cramped.

    • Since they open sourced the calculator in Win 10/11 it is much better and can do a lot, I love it.
    • That's just silly imo. The lengths that man goes to just to avoid W11 is just nuts. Very, very few home users would do that. I will say this though, he is committed. Btw, I note on askwoody that Woody Leonhard passed away March, 2025 aged 73. His site was one of my favorites back in the day. Belated yes but RIP Woody.
    • Because of the EU (a good thing) newer android devices been getting 5 years worth of security patches. Except some Motorola which found the loop hole, and offer ZERO updates. In addition, Google for years have been making where it can patch some stuff by updating the core Google Play Store itself.  As echoed earlier,  you take the security risk in to your own hand beyond supported.
