I can't remember the site I found this on, but I'd love to own it.

looks awesome, like something the Flintstones would have lol :D hope they used good protection on the wood so it doesn't just crap up or get termites

I would guess it's a hardwood that's been treated and varnished. So termites and scratches aren't an option. :P

Flintstones would have a stone 'puter. This looks like something the Queen would do her gaming on. :P

It doesn't look like a hard job. The only problem I see would be fitting a good system in such a small space and that funky artwork on top of the box.

That is amazing, I wouldn't be able to do that, not even if I wanted to.

I want some of the best stuff for mine: A solid granite computer :O

Solid marble laptop.

even with marble you have to protect it cuz stuff can grow in it and with certain liquids, its highly reactive lol

i remember in high school we dropped some form of liquid in a 2x2 inch marble plate - it was a few drops, ate the whole marble piece lol :D awesome, think it was marble at least

also it'll be expensive, current computers are mostly plastic, one of the cheapest materials around

Of course a marble laptop would be expensive. xD
Wooden PC, not as much. You could probably make one for about the same as a good regular box.

I think the computer were over heat. Wood, conducts heat really well. I think......

To make everything wood like that, they probably have thought of a way around that.

its probably just an outside casing...and with the right finish on wood, it won't conduct anything lol, can even be flame resistant

Chances are what ever finish you use on it will cause it to become more flammable. I would guess an inner casing would work fine though.
