Tech News: Tom’s Hardware Want To Know Your PC Mods

Hardware Roundup Seven 8800 boards rubber stamped

In any case, I came across a website that enables you to run open-sauced firmware from a Linksys WRT54G wireless router on a PC. The OpenWRT Firmware was recently compiled to work on x86-based systems and it has no problems running on either Linux or Windows. For an old machine, or on multithreaded CPUs of today, this could prove to be a good experiment. Graynetwork.org posted a workshop that includes all the details on how to get it running, so head over there and experiment a bit.

Weird and Wonderful PCs and Mods
Send Us Your Stories

It’s time for a little fun. Tell Tom’s Hardware’s editors about the oddest, coolest, most bizarre, most eccentric or most outlandish PC or PC mod you’ve ever seen.

Maybe your choice sits in your workroom, garage, office or storage locker. Perhaps it belongs to someone else. Possibly it has gone on to that great computer graveyard in the sky. Did you or someone else build it? It doesn’t matter. Tell us about it.
