I cannot believe I read through all those comments, and not one person seems to understand the idea of the ITX formfactor, a Pico-ITX is only 10x7.2cm, that's 3.93"x2.83", compare that with your standard business card: 3.5"x2", and there are people out there who are going to sit here and tell me that you CAN'T fit that in a bottle? I can barely think clearly right now, because that ignorance just baffles me. A laptop board, no, a netbook(eeePC, or Aspire) maybe... never had a good first hand teardown of one of those, however I doubt it, not sure if they have VGA out on them, or if the creator would want to waste the built in display, I'd sooner assume that if it was a netbook, the LCD would have been built into one of the larger sides of the bottle. Also, the power supply used leads me to think it's an ITX of some fashion, as laptops and netbooks tend to have a separated power supply, and would more likely just have a power jack built into the bottle, rather than worry about putting the whole unit in. Also, show me a laptop or netbook power supply that outputs to molex.... and I'll take back much of what I said. Kudos to the creator, that is a beautiful case mod, and now I'm tempted to get an eeePC and try something similar with a bottle of Jager or something similar, maybe use a handle if size requires it. Alright… I cannot believe I read through all those comments, and not one person seems to understand the idea of the ITX formfactor, a Pico-ITX is only 10×7.2cm, that’s 3.93″x2.83″, compare that with your standard business card: 3.5″x2″, and there are people out there who are going to sit here and tell me that you CAN’T fit that in a bottle?
