More whacky than a whacky thing being whacked

HEXUS @ CeBIT 2007 Of course, any CeBIT 2007 coverage wouldn’t be complete without a stroll around the case modding finalists and the systems they’ve got on display.

Just like last year, we’ve got a full range of weird and wonderful mods, ranging from the unrecognisable with Fake Cake through to the more subtle ‘alternative to a standard case’ with Twins.

Anyway, enough of my waffle, let’s have a look at this year’s finalists:

First up is ‘Walker’, obviously inspired by Mechwarrior or games of that ilk. This was created by Stefan Blass, took 150 hours to build and cost €500.

This is one of my favourite mods and is called ‘Brockenblick’. This cost creator Christian Fischer €100 and 100 hours to make, yes, it’s an old fashioned TV... cool.
