I was looking for cooling products just for the hell of it and stumbled onto a 5.25 Drive bay that holds a cigarette lighter and a cup holder.

Next step is OnStar button (for all your technical needs)
Why anyone would put a drink that close to a PC is beyond me.... one bump the wrong way and you've got liquid trickling down all over your HDs or worse. The lighter is a few IQs lower on the scale of stupidity. It's like "let's take something that produces even MORE heat and put it in your PC!" It's kind of anti-geek.
I actually want to know who actually bought one of the bays?! :)
Yah but if you're not a geek and you're an alcoholic smoker, this is your dream.
Smoke is bad for PCs why are they promoting it?
that's an understatement, you ever see what tar+dust= ? I had a customers computer that looked like the insides were caked with mud...and I mean caked, you couldn't see one bit of silicon and the fans were all jammed up. Took me one hour, 5 can's of compressed CO2, 2/3 a bottle of rubbing alcohol and a whole box of Q-tips to clean it.
wicked.... and it still ran like that?
This is very true.Quote:

I think it's awesome that we're talking about what the inside of the computer looks like, but the inside of the smoker's lung? Eh, not so important! lol
I don't think any of us have had to clean out a smoker's lung ;)
Man, this is old news. Drewpee did this forever ago :)
>>Drewpee did this forever ago
for a minute I thought you were referring to me...people used to call me that....::shudders::
No, there used to be a member here that went by that name. He took an old CD-ROM, removed the optics, and actually made himself a cup holder :)
personally when I have a beer (or otherwise alcohlic) drink, like now, I try to stay away from the computer. I tend to say stuff I usually wouldn't to people either through IM or board posts (though I tend to do this on this board). But I forget what I was going to say. Somethign about me not having a cup hold coming out of my computer but still being able to drink.... idk.
I wonder who thought was a good idea in the first place. Besides drunks being the ones to use it they probably invented it as well.
