Originally a kind of hardware hack on a PC intended to support
<a href="../O/overclock.html"><i class="glossterm">overclocking</i></a> (e.g. with cutouts

machine look nifty. The commonest case mods combine acrylic case windows
with LEDs to give the machine an eerie interior glow like a B-movie flying

the unwritten rules is that the machine must continue to function as
a computer.</p></dd><div class="navfooter"><hr/><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="case-and-paste.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="../C.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="casters-up-mode.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">case and paste </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="../index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> casters-up mode</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
