    I am not sure if it is just the panel that goes onto an iBUYPOWER's case or if it is a case that has the panel already installed, in other words, I am not sure if the panel and case are sold separately or not.

    Oh. And the rest of the case is pretty ugly too.

    Nice. I just have to spend time on the floor, with my head in the few inches between the PC and the UPS, so that I can watch it.

    My vote goes to... an aquarium

    How about making an aquarium with that panel then?

    Images of fish swimming back and forth would be cool, but there is still this dealbreaker...
    In the end, I guess I'm going to be my usual old-school boring self and watch... the monitor.
    Displaying what the camera pointed at you aquarium is seeing?

    That's a cool product. If you're going to make your PC an aquarium though, you have to make it powered by electric eels, and the translucent image has to come from the GoPro strapped to the eel's head.

    Boring old me...

    I've never understood why people want to load a computer with flashing lights and stuff. Gamers want every last fraction of horsepower for their games; audiophools suspect all and everything of making music-spoiling noise --- and yet they add these flash[ing] gadgets!

    But then, I think that adding glowing blue tubes to the underside of cars is stupid, so I'm hardly likely to be attracted to this stuff for computer boxes.
