MacMod.com has announced their honorees for the prizewinning mods on Macs that they saw terminal year, and you crapper wager every of the hacks and mods over at their place correct now. Most of the mods are housing modifications, same the rattling disentangle iPhone custom, and the “Xbox G4,” as seen above, which is a Powerbook G4 modded into the housing of an Xbox 360 (with employed anulus of light!).

I encounter it engrossing that despite every of the disentangle housing designs and gadget melds, the succeeder ends up existence a code grapple (well, it’s actually more than a code hack, but still, you won’t encounter some argonon conduit in this mod, meet a beige case): Leopard streaming on a PowerMac 8500. The teenager itself ends up existence a dustlike activate over the story of Apple’s underway software, its time machines, and every of the adhesive chips and element inside. Very cool. Kudos to every the modders for their impact — we can’t move to wager what 2009 brings to the teenager community.
