Hellbent on creating a MacBook mod made for the record book of epicness, modder Tyler took it upon himself to take on a project which resulted in an entire MacBook being shoved into the body of two interconnected Linksys routers. When we say the entire MacBook, we mean it, including the built-in iSight webcam and mic. Why bother, you might ask? Who cares. It’s Apple. It’s a mod. And it’s awesome. ‘Nuff said.

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, everything is better toasted. So it goes without saying that everything is equally better as a toaster.

Simple: You can easily display slideshows of pictures from Flickr, Picasa, Photobucket and other online photo services. All you gotta do is hit the eBay circuit to find a used Eee...

Anyone old enough to have owned an NES when it was the prime system knows how awesome the Power Glove could have been. Alas, it was just a controller bolted to a neat-looking glove. Now, 20 years later, Matt Mechtley has done the impossible and has officially made the Power Glove cool again. Using an Arduino, a Bluetooth module and an accelerometer, Matt can now manipulate all kinds of data using the Power Glove. Hell, I can only imagine the... Continue reading

Ben Heck, master modder of all things electronic, has taken a whole new route in his latest PC case mod. It seems Ben was kicking back a few brews of crisp, cold Miller Genuine Draft beer.
