My neighbor's girlfriend wants a yellow & black Mustang so we built her a yellow and black PC from spare parts. (He's soundmaster2.0 on the forums) The only parts bought for this project was the $40 shipped black case & the keyboard & mouse. He supplied a 1.33ghz T-bird, mobo, and 256mb ram that was once mine, two hard drives, a dvd-burner (vinyl died black), a sound card, and a GeForce 2 MX. I did 90% of the paint work and I assembled the system. Here's the result :)

Looks good! Did you make the car mouse yourself? It looks factory to me.
factory - it was ordered from Directron

Thanks for the complements! And yes, it does look like a bumblebee.

@solid: Not my colors either. I stick with black/blue, black/green, and silver/blue

OMG I WANT THAT MOUSE!!! I wonder if its any good though.
hmm, I didn't test it too much. Worked fine on the floor, my pants, and the top of the computer though. The only thing is that it's really light. You need to take it apart and add weight to it.
 
isnt the bumblebee an actual car? from the 70s if i remember correctly. Anyways, NICE paintjob! of course the g/f will like it, it's got "such a cute mouse"
