Our friends over at Extreme Tech are working overtime to tell us all how to build a PC into a cow. The crucial step in the build is choosing the type of case, I mean cow. Complete parts list available here.
"Ultimately, the Bovine 3000 is not for everyone. For starters, it needs grass. Lots and lots of grass. Plus there are "resource contention issues" where we want to use the PC, but the cow wants to go online to play CounterStrike Source. Negotiations between us and the cow were still ongoing at press time. Still, if you live on a farm, and have ever thought to yourself, "Hey, why not overclcock one of my cows?" Then the Bovine 3000 has your name written all over it. The acquisition costs are a bit steep, as this is one of the few PC systems in existence that actually requires regular visits from a veterinarian. But the increased dairy output, plus the system's ability to run sans shore power make it very appealing for those in rural areas that don't have dependable electrical service. Of course, this is also a system that can on a whim just decide to walk off when you're in the middle of something important. But for the bovine-inclined, it's an acceptable set of tradeoffs."
