Wooden Computer Accessories 467
polyp2000 writes "It's always interesting to read about case-mods, but this company has a novel twist, for nature loving geeks. Maybe even the perfect accessory for a wooden case mod. Swedx do a nice line in wooden monitors, keyboards, and some sweet looking wooden mice in a selection of different woods."

wooden cases huh? wouldnt want an Athlon in there, the heat might cause an office fire. Whats next, tablets made out of stone?
I can see it now, the boss walks in with his shiny (heavy) new tablet, suddenly those power point presentations are elevated to commandment level. Plus if someone disagrees, it doubles as a pacifier.

Me, I'm still waiting for my authentic ivory mouse and tiger fur coated keyboard.

looks fine.. (Score:3, Funny)
But thanks, I'll just stick to the cheap mass-produced hardware (except the monitor, that's the only computer part worth spending money on imo). Maybe I'm just a functional type..

"Father, what kind of animal is that?"
"That's a qwerty, my son. If you know how to skin and prepare one, you can use almost every part of it to make a keyboard."
"Almost? What's left over?"
"The scrowlock and the cisrek. Hell if I know what they're good for."

Tried it. (Score:1, Funny)
So I bought a wooden mouse. Wooden speakers, and a wooden printer. Beautiful.
Next up was a wooden case. Wooden PSU, CPU and wooden RAM. It all looked gorgeous.
So I got a wooden hard drive, wooden graphics card and wooden DVD burner. All connected with wooden cables.
With bated breath, and trembling hands, I plugged it all together. And pressed the wooden power button.
And the damn thing wooden boot.

You see, there's this thing called "taste." It's hard to explain but it's different for different people. In short, some people think techy color innards are cool. You're not one of them? Fine. You think your taste is good and everyone else's is crap? That might make you an elitist snob, but hey, everyone's entitled to their opinion.
