It may take a village to raise a child, but it only takes three people to build one of the coolest custom computers we've seen in a long time. DS Fanboy reader (and
prizewinner!) Jason Barnes, who posts as Ganthor, wrote in with this story, and we just
had to share. Seems his friend Emily picked up a Mini-ITX motherboard and wanted a custom case for it, but didn't want to build it herself. Luckily, Jason did, and he recruited another friend, Jason Letterman, to help him get the project underway.
Once he had permission to build the case, Jason was free to pursue a dream: building a computer in a lunch box. Of course, just any lunch box wouldn't do; it had to be something special that suited Emily's tastes (which are clearly
excellent). After taking some measurements and checking out the various Nintendo lunch boxes, he ordered the one shown above.
But that was the easy part!
