"How I PC'd an Apple G5"
There are NO words to describe my utter shock and abhorrance for this dickhead. He gets a G5 for a GIFT! Who the hell gets a G5 for a GIFT?
Ok that's not what I'm truly shocked at. He dissembowels it so he can whack PC bits in it so he can run Windows XP, apparently he wanted a Dell (Dill or Hell) not a G5!
Where are the Apple police when you need them!
Ignoring the whole Apple violation, he wanted a Dell? People should be shot on sight for even uttering that phrase. Fuckwits who want Dells wouldn't know it's even possible to mod a PC, so I'm thinking this guy is a troll

Techworld notes that G5 Case Mod is a hoax:
...he simply filled it with PC workings and then photographed his own working G5 with the side of the case off. Concocting a far-fetched anecdote around the wheeze and sending it off to a website was probably not the best move however. In a matter of two days he claims to have received 1,300 messages of contempt, disgust and incomprehension.— posted by ginshirou at 08.02.2004 03:49 AEST |
Thanks to ginshirou for confirming that Dell-tard is not only a troll, but the G5 violation was a hoax

There's an update from the original article with a note from the wingnut behind the hoax. Does the suggestion from one mortified Mac aficionado that he "should be hung by his testicles and lit on fire" count as a death threat?
