Cardboard PC :-)

This is the cardboard computer I made. I was too lazy to make an instuctable, but if many people want an instructable, I'll make it! :-)

The Cardboard PC now runs Puppy Linux because this pc is very, very old...

Overheating would be a concern for me also. Might put some foil on the inside and ground it, A cardboard pc could made really stealthy for security if someone wanted to..
