Probably because most of the people who build these things are computer geeks
first, lego geeks second, so they don't have a large brick collection, and have
to make do with what they have.

Getting closer...
That's actually one of the best LEGO-cases so far.

The one I brought to Brickfest this year was solid black : )
I guess no one noticed it though, no one took pictures of it
or even commented on it : ( Oh, well... I did have fun dragging it
to a LAN parties at night and it actually survived several trips on the
metro : )

I was there and don't recall ever seeing it. If I had noticed it I would
have definitely taken pics! Do you have any you'd like to share? I'm
getting ready to (maybe" build a Lego PC using an ITX mobo.

Great case! I plan on building one soon. Nothing special, but I want it to
be small.

I have an idea where you could show the completed work. I was watching TechTVs
The Screen Savers the other day and they were showing the finalists to their
case mod contest.
http://www.techtv.com/screensavers/story/0,24330,3498856,00.html
Granted, its a bit too late to enter but a thought to consider. I have no
doubts they will have another contest soon. (If you watch the show then you
know how much they love seeing this stuff.)
Monday, they showed a Millennium Falcon PC.

Ya, I saw that lastnight. What is funny is I saw that same PC online last
week while researching this project. I watch TSS religiously! I was on it
(Jessica read my email) a couple of weeks ago! She's a hottie. :P
I was going to do a PC / Atari 2600 mod. That one is still an option, but I
wanted to also incorporate LEGO into the picture. Who knows, maybe I'll
make a PC from a stock LEGO set (modified of course).
