Vang1.net created this Futurama Leela-inspired computer (also known as pc 'case modding'), which features a small LCD display on the arm, a mini-ITX motherboard, removable thumb drive, and a webcam integrated into Leela's eyeball.
Vang1.net creator writes in his blog: "I've always been a big Futurama fan and I was 100% certain I'd be able to do this, dispite how much time and money I'd spend."
"Whenever you're feeling down, feeling that your life is worth nothing, or trapped under a rock opting to die of dehydration instead of freeing yourself by severing your leg with your trusty pocketknife, take comfort in the fact that you are not responsible for the most disturbing PC case of all time," said Michael McWhertor from Kotaku.com
"I've never understood the practice of "case modding". I think it has something to do with proving how big a nerd you are to your friends," Evan Wade writes in an article for SomethingAwful.com
It does look kinda strange and somewhat disturbing to us, but who are we to judge those from planet Nerd?
