TARDIS HTPC

Being a Doctor Who fan… I always wanted to build a TARDIS. Since I can exactly build a full size one right now, I figured why not a small one. I saw an article with a company who is selling a metal TARDIS PC, I said I can make one of those.
So I thought about how and what I would need to make it happen. Using Masonite, poplar strips and stock I started to build the case. I decided that I would use it as an HTPC so I made a list of what I would need to be able to stream movies effectively from my Home Server.
The TARDIS include AMD E350 APU running Windows 7 on 32GB SSD, 4GB of DDR3 RAM, Infrared for remote control and DVD drive for nostalgia.
Everything is easily upgradable since top and front doors are removable for access to components.
