Man, the hypothetical conversation I'm going to have with my wife about whether she would let "that thing in her house" is going to be a doozy.

According to Reddit and Engadget, this is at least four years old, which looks consistent with the specs from the creator's website (?).

"WHY?"

WHY NOT? This is gorgeous art, I totally want a beaver computer now.

Beaver fur is renowned for its insulating properties.

It's going to get really freaking hot, and one little fan ain't gonna do shit.

I hate to be all "reddit" about this, but I notice there is no wedding ring, and therefore I have found my dream girl.

A computer, in my beaver?

It's more likely than you think.

Before this thread is done, someone is going to be accused of some form of -ist, mark my words.

Well, my Gran died a few months ago, and I've already installed 3 (three!) fans in her and six (6!) graphics cards. She'll be awesome.

Well, I live here, teach at OSU, and fancy myself an expert in some computer areas, but...I'm gonna pass on this one. I'm not sure I'd ever come home again knowing that was waiting for me.

Like Sys Rq, I just can't stop thinking about how hot it must get in there. I mean, people used to make coats specifically out of beaver, on purpose, to keep warm. It's like wrapping your computer in attractive natural insulation.

It is pretty sweet, though.

I can't believe that nobody ever thought of doing this before.

I'm anticipating amusing outdoorsy/computer geek couple arguments now.

The beaver will appear as a pop-locking synthesizer in a dubstep remix of this song.
