Default school case mod competition

in about a month i will be doing a case mod competition at my school. i was trying to come up with ideas, but i really don't know. i'm looking for a general theme for the computer. i plan to add a side window, maybe a top window, tons of cable management, paint it, add some fans, completely redo the piece of crap. here is the case. any ideas?

http://img.alibaba.com/photo/1005508..._Pentium_4.jpg
or maybe this one
http://h50177.www5.hp.com/images/std...ts/DB671AV.jpg
i'm not sure, it's just an old full tower school computer.

i was thinking a you tube computer, a razor computer, counter strike, obama computer lol (not seriously). but i really couldn't come up with anything i liked. so i'm coming to you guys for help. seriously, i'm looking for completely random idea.

RON BURGUNDY!!!!!!!!!

Totally put his face on the side, and then a quote, like
"BY THE BEARD OF ZEUS!"

And then you could have a sweet Channel Four News Team logo on the front! Maybe a conch shell on the other side of the case...

(This is why I have my avatar, I was gonna put his face and that quote on a sign with CNC machine but never did..) I won't be offended if you hate this idea. Because this is better:

JACKIE CHAN!!!!!!!!!!!! Okay maybe I'm idea dry right now. But seriously, maybe if you know or happen to be good at graffiti, you could make some sort of graffitied wall on teh side of the case...

If it is for school why not have a school bus

For random, you should make the bus remote controlled so you can drive it around. find an old hobby grade rc car and mod it into the case.

Put a variable speed Dremel motor in it. Or 2.
And a long extension cord. And get the hell out of the way.
