A computer mod straight out of 24

Forget about those silly bomb-defusing alarm clocks. This is one piece of hardware that would make Jack Bauer proud (real or fake versions alike).

This case mod was designed to "look like the sort of atomic bomb that one sees in spy movies or on TV shows like 24," as described on TechEBlog. The creator is quick to add that he "tried not to base the design on any real or fictional bomb, but simply out of my imagination." That's a relief--we think.

Very cool, but Crave, you messed it up a bit.

Your included description of the included innards here was for the 'Command and Conquer'-inspired computer case that is also on the page that your WMD-PC link was tied to (which btw I actually think is even neater and more creative than this evil weapon lookalike).

Thanks for the catch!
