[NaloMastress]

*applause*

[kerrison772]

now thats good

[TheWarlacozte]

he lost his life in Vietnam.

[Ffiti2]

THAT is awesome! I mean, imagine... because of the way the G4 cube is made (i.e. a box, with an extra ring of clear plastic on the bottom), this kind of mod is possible... Seriously! The wheels and all just disappear right into the machine, and the computer is left standing... wow.

[westexchi]

very cool



[97VideoFreak]

"Hey,Hey apple"

"WHAT"

"you look awesome hahahaha" =D

[jemmalouisejones]

Show us how u made it

[CAJS117]

Lol

[fudge666master]

Spy robot!

[homerjs56]

Cool

[ALOUBIN]

somebody please can explain me what is a Power Mac G4 Cube.,...i mean....if ipod can play videos and other things ,,,what Power Mac G4 Cube used to do....PLEASE SOMEONE

[thinkingbricks]

@ALOUBIN

the Apple Power Mac G4 Cube was an actual Apple Computer, very beautiful (museums showcased it), but it didn't sell well

there are MANY fans though who LOVED the computer and its also a favorite computer to MOD

check wikipedia for more info on it and do a google image search and you can see all the neat things people have turned it into

[JackBandicootsBunker]

@thinkingbricks Also, it was the predecessor of the currently sold Mac Mini.

[djnick7000]

@ALOUBIN ever heard of a computer?

[MRNodinC]

That's so cool

[TheVortagon]

lol

[yamikato]

This is what happens if you get the wrong side of steve jobs :s

[madhatterz64]

asome vid

[josurd]

its like HAL 2000

[thinkingbricks]

@josurd

did you mean HAL 9000 from the movie 2001?

(though there probably was a HAL 2000 before a HAL 9000 at some point)

[josurd]

@thinkingbricks Nope. i didnt know it was 9000, because i could only remember the HAL bit and some numbers

[blanknot]

Wow, that's totally useless!

[Darkdead95]

lol i imagine getting a call from someone:

-Hey dood wazzup!?

-Nothing... just riding mah Mac

- O_O'

[antonslavin]

Nice! What a good thing! This is good to have this thing. If your dad is coming, says: OK. Your time is over! And then he turns off the processor. You can activate this thing, and he can't turn it off! ;-)

[ryeguy222]

OH MY GOD ITS A TRANSFORMER!!!!

ROBOTS IN DISGUISE!!!!!!

[instatutionilazation]

it looks evil with that red light...

[blhiniker]

Apple is skynet o.o

it even has red eyes like the terminator

[thinkingbricks]

@blhiniker

"Apple is skynet o.o"

you're probably right!

[TheEpicThree]

Decepticon..

[jamber250]

EPIC

[thinkingbricks]

@jamber250

thanks!

[iTechBuddy]

Me wants it

[minibaby123456789]

That was pretty pathetic. How about making it he the lego parts and move with all of the computers original hardware still in it. That would make it pretty cool.

[busfany]

Super, das wünsche ich mir

[thinkingbricks]

@busfany

thanks!

[MangaMonsta]

Does everybody know what hello world is? it is

basic, beginning code

[UnicycleFilms]

[armerboy13]

Wall-E is hiding in the apple box xD

[thinkingbricks]

[Leadman1989]

THE MACHINES!!!!!

[thinkingbricks]

@Leadman1989

yep, there here!

[thinkingbricks]

@thinkingbricks

THEY'RE here!

[quelorepario]

It parallel parks better than I do!

[thinkingbricks]

@quelorepario

better than me too!

but some new cars have automatic parallel parking - if you trust it!

[WIZZYJ8]

awesome.. does it break when i let it fall off the stairs by accident?

[thinkingbricks]

@WIZZYJ8

actually, i drove it off the desk by accident, the cube's acrylic case is so thick that it protected the LEGO robot!

[Safat]

haha

[HunterNational]

You inspired me to get a lego midstorms NXT! Thank u!

[thinkingbricks]

@HunterNational

great! mindstorms nxt is a BLAST and you definitely won't be "BORED" with it (referring to your video)

pls post videos of your creations!

[HunterNational]

@thinkingbricks

No what im trying to say is you made me want to get NXT. Nice vid!

[thinkingbricks]

@HunterNational

thx again, hope you do get an NXT and have loads of fun with it - NXT is a great way to express your imagination

[HunterNational]

SUPER!

[thinkingbricks]

@HunterNational

thanks!

[Joepedoep]

O MY GOD, SUPER!

[thinkingbricks]

@Joepedoep

thanks!

[wheelsonpavement]

If you look closely, you can see that it used to be orange, and now it is black.

That is because it is two different computers.

[cariduro69]

is fake but cool. he took the body and put a car lego the stop the video and reinstalle it. you can see the cables in place after the wheels go up

[sniis]

You are SUPER! How did you do that?

[thinkingbricks]

thanks! you can see more about how it was made on my webpage linked in the description - i wanted to do this a long time ago, but never had a g4 cube until recently

[DJparsons89]

take transforming out of the name... i didn't see a big robot or anything.. but w/e nice video 5/5 star

[thinkingbricks]

not a big robot, but it is still "more than meets the eye", and technically, a "robot in disguise" :)

thx 4 watching and rating!

[JStylezTS]

can one say HAL? x]

[CODfourever]

Im surprised apple hasnt actually done that yet! I would buy it! great vid!

[thinkingbricks]

i really hope they're building a cybernetic organism for steve jobs

[FixedHDD]

[thinkingbricks]

[Aqwert76]

[TheBlizzardx1]

[binkydude]

I don't know what to say. Its just.. Strange and amazing in one!

[thinkingbricks]

[Russell218]

That was impeccable tower placement.

[thinkingbricks]

thx! 1 of my better parking jobs

[JAKAMONDO]

@Russell218 it didnt even change position cuase when you press 6767676766767677666777666 repeatedly you can see that it was actually the camera that was moving

[pandakin0808]
