Alright guys, im going to need a little bit of a group effort here. Ive had 2 trinity temp guages ---- out on me. Once they stop telling temperature, i email NZXT and take my old one apart. i havnt gotten either of them to work after there taken apart, but under close inspection, the LCD color is changeable. It will not be easy, and i have to figure out how to get the LCD screen apart first. All the LCD screen is colored by, is a VERY(and i stress VERY) small LED. Its the kind that lights cellphones, ipods...well..most screens. This is possible, but not easy from what i understand. If i can find out how to take the screen apart without it breaking(nothing shows up on the screens after i take them apart) it, the color can be changed to...red.green, yellow, purple...whatever color you please. Heres where the group effort comes in. Im not going to tell any of you to sacrifice your Trinitys LCD screen, but if any of you have fried it(it says H*C or L*C), or you have good knowledge of the stuff, you should mess with it. If we can figure out how to get the screens apart without them breaking(or get them back together,working) i can go buy the parts, change mine to red, and write/take pictures for a tutorial for everyone else. If anyone wants to try to figure this out, im up for it. If not, ill probably start buying stuff with LCD screens, and trying to get them apart without them breaking, and when i figure it out, ill do it to mine, change it to red and have an awesome case

Just a thought ive been brewing on for a while

and while im at it...heres something i started planning out in ISS... its going to be a computer built into a steel suitcase, with monitor, speakers, wi-fi, the works...should be a neat project. i just have to get a cheap, 15 inch or so LCD monitor. mabey i can find one with a dead stripe or something for like 40 bux
