You made that in 2004, right? To be fair, most cases were pretty facepalm-worthy back then.

Yeah, but in 5 years this guy will hone his skill and be selling stuff at CES, and Gizmodo will still be banned. :)

The ironic thing is that I won't, I'll be out of grad school and hopefully beginning a successful career as a composer/conductor/piano player :D...

which is hilarious given all these comments on how ugly it is and how I'm "non artistic" psst, it's "inartistic". When, of course, it was only a snapshot of (basically) the first time it was playable (I had been playing it all night when it all came together :D...)

anyway, it doesn't surprise me, but I commented anyway to set them straight 8)

I read the article.

How do you solder a hole??

I know I don't have anything to do with this but this just made me angry. I would like to see them make one.

This is why I hate all those sites like gizmodo. If the mod doesn't look like it was made in a factory, they start shi*ting out of their mouths all this bullcrap about how horrible it looks when they don't know a damn thing about what goes into making the things. I'd like to hand all those negative commenters a soldering iron and watch them fail horribly at making a GCP. This is just as bad as all those people saying get a psp instead of make a portable. That is why the only hacking sites I go to are Benheck (didn't see that comming, now did you?) and instructables.
rest in peace, Ronnie James Dio! \m/

Gamelver vs. Giz... I'd pay to see that. Maybe Gamelver should issue the Challenge to Giz. Make for a interesting Featurette mini-series for Giz

In all seriousness, what dicks! "and blended it all together" WTF? It's pretty hard to build a GCp.

I would have said A for electronics, B for effort, and D for case.
