The PC Mod That Is Sexier Than A Mac
We all know that two of Apple's most famous catch phrases are "sexy" and "insanely great," which they pretty much attach to all their products. In some ways those words are true as well, and with all the sales they are raking in, it's hard to say the contrary.
However, there are of course modders ...
Motherboard Art: Secretly Pimp Out Your Computer
Once again, I am impressed with the depth of creativity people showcase around the world. Some of the things I have never even seen or thought about before.

The Geeky Etch-A-Sketch Computer

Grilltendo: Become The Master Of Your Barbecue Party
Alright, so even if there is still snow on the ground, I am looking forward to that first barbecue that is looming in the horizon. It will be quite some time because I reckon the snow won't melt away for at least another month or so. Even after that, there is no point in having a barbecue if the t ...

Romba Pac-Man: Vacuuming Suddenly Makes So Much More Sense!

This Oven Lounge Geekifies Your Home Like Nothing Else!
Do you remember the article I wrote about the stove turned into a stereo system not too long ago?

Real TRON Skatecycle: The Age Of TRON Has Arrived!
Right now TRON is on everyone's lips, and it's hard to find a place or gadget that hasn't been Tronified. There are newly rendered imaginative gadgets, and then there's the gadgets that are real but have gotten some modification added to them to appear as much TRON as possible. I saw the movie a c ...
Mod World: White iPhone, Game Boy and HTC All Bundled!
The mod world just gets crazier and crazier by the minute. If it's not steampunk, it's a coffee table that you can play on. It just never stops, and that's a good thing. But where does a mod begin and end just to become something else? It seems just because something looks like something it's a ...
Rog-R: World’s First Remote Controlled Computer Mod!

Insane Mod: A Stove Turned Into A Cross-Culture Stereo
Right now I am just wondering what I can turn into something awesome over here. Not that I would do it, or even have the time to, but it just hit me that pretty much everything can become... well anything. Not even half the mods we have presented here on Bit Rebels have I seen coming. Usually you're ...

Steampunk: PC Modded Into A Victorian Beauty Of The Past
A couple of years ago, I wrote an article on Minervity.com about a ton of modded computers that looked absolutely stunning.

Kinect Hack Makes Future Navigation Just Like Minority Report!
The more I get into this new and exciting piece of technology, the more I understand what a huge impact it will have.
