I recieved this in an email message today:
Hey matt -
I was looking at the post you've made about the computer and I want you to post this as a reply to those who were offeneded.


To edgegamers - I am the owner and co-designer/builder of the Lamda Core computer. I realize this case is a little strange and different. This is my first ever case I have designed, pleae go easy on me. all of you builders/modders started off some where so let me. Like BlackMesa this case is desinged to be over the top in looks and function well enough to run a game or two. I like advice and accept i all the time. Critisim is not advice not matter what teachers say, so please tell me what you thinkg it needs not how you would build it yourself.
Last bit of buisness - matt "feaherfoot" posted "Think fast" at my request so I am here now to apologize and take responsibility fo this. I see no reason why he should take flak for something I said.

I just wanted them to know your side, I see that you are trying to keep up your image there and they should respect you for that. I can't wait until we work on it again,

Seems very creative and interesting. Only thing I could see wrong with it is Overheating issues.
 
I've got a bad feeling about surrounding a hot computer with wood. You better have a water cooling system in that sucker.
 
Meh... wood should be fine as long as it is isolated away from hot components.
 
Most heat is removed by convection in a case anyway not by conduction.... With proper ventilation ths will be no problem... This is my plan as well... I am tired of having two towers at my desk so I am upgrading my server to an Ion based Atom so I can move both my gaming rig and sever INTO my desk and save some space... glad to see I am not alone in this idea
 
I don't think anything in the computer would be hot enough to cause any problems with fire.

Well, maybe some internal parts of the PSU or CPU, but I agree that there should be no practical problems. I think these guys know what they're doing.
 
Yeah, dear Mattie ran off and didn't even need our help. Almost makes me tear up, seeing his first project.

Seriously though, there was a reason we stuffed Project Kari full of fans. Airflow, airflow, airflow.
 
You are so badass, that'd be cool.

Besides overheating, another thing, how are you going to get it out for maintenance and repairs?
 
You guys worry too much, people used to make darn near everything out of wood.
 
I've seen wooden cases before - they work fine. Worrying about a wooden case catching on fire is like worrying that a piece of paper will catch on fire if you set it on top of you PC:confused1:
