Release NotesJust look at the typical PC. Beyond boring. Why put up with that? Mod your case
to match your own unique, scintillating personality. Odds are, one of the 9
amazing case-modding projects in ExtremeTech’s Going Mod will be right up your
alley. If not, this book delivers all the knowledge you need to create a mod
nobody’s ever seen before.

While some simple mods are here, they’re just the beginning. Shucks, nowadays,
it seems like even your grandmother can swap LEDs. But can she do the Millennium
Falcon case mod, which starts with one of those old Kenner Star Wars toys you
can find on eBay for 50 bucks? We didn’t think so.

As in all this book’s projects, Russ Caslis walks you through everything. In
this project, that means gently taking apart your Falcon; washing off the crud;
carefully removing stray plastic to make more room inside; carving cutouts for
video, USB, keyboard, mouse, audio, and Ethernet ports; painting; venting
exhaust; and of course, assembly.
