Computer In A Bottle

— March 24, 2007 — Tech
Whisky PC is a Computer case mod of the project. The goal is to put every computer hardware inside a bottle of a whisky. It is quite amazing. To do this, the project uses an Intel Pentium 3 processor, 256MB of ram, and 40GB of hard disk space. The motherboard has a Mini-ITX form factor so it can fit the small-dimensioned bottle. The project was a success and the Whisky PC runs smoothly.
