    WOO HOOO! One of my favorite movies of all time... finally has a sequal!!!

    Found out yesterday that the "young flynn" orange/yellow program, is confirmed... CLU! Not sure if you remember CLU was Flynn's hacking program that the MCP de-rezzed early in the movie. Nobody knows if CLU is for or against Flynn yet. And because I am *such* a freak for this series and...

    The Sleeper

    Thanks Rob!! Yeah, the mid tower makes it a challenge, but as they say in marketing... "Location... location... location!" ;) So, I pulled out my drilling template from the previous holes, and finished drilling the missing shape holes, and then also got to thinking about the ASUS logo, and "how...

    The Sleeper

    (Feb 22nd) Ok, so this is not all of the pieces (obviously), but it will give you a good look into what I am having to do with each piece! Continuing with the famous piece from the previous post, I set to lighting it up. I did this by placing the LED's into the 5mm holes that were pre-cut...

    The Sleeper

    (Feb 21st...) Wow.... I am tired! I have spent this past weekend making custom 2 and 3 LED "series" circuits for all of my pre-cut acrylics... and I must say, it has been a learning experience! I still have to glue the LED's into the acrylic, and then cover the soldered LED legs that go from...

    The Sleeper

    (jan 18th) Couple of quick notes here.... 1) I am going to move the mod log out to another forum, since the Asus competition is no longer active, this subsection is a bit misleading. I am going to attempt to move it over to the Modding section, so be on the look out. 2) I did some work...

    The Sleeper

    (December 12th....) Wow.... that was easy to make $270!!! LIke I stated before, I am a relative newb overclocker. No, scratch that, the lkast time I overclocked was when it was a slam dunk on the old Celeron 300a "Clover leafs" where you were able to take a Celery 300a and bump it to 450Mhz...

    Well... hello everyone! I got nothing done over the Turkey day holiday (traveling with the family to a destination 2 states away will do that to ya!), and made no headway on the LED controller board, but am thinking that will be the least of my worries to complete, not anticipating huge issues...
