Not a new idea, I've been talking with a coworker about going from the water cooled PC to a complete submersion of the PC components in mineral oil. I'm been reading about it and it might be the next PC build I might make.

Boot Animation Revisited

Cameron Behzadpour (@Xevin) is back, lending his talents to re-imagining the CM10 bootanimation in all its chiptunes glory. 

Some notes:

# This has not been merged into CM source yet, and is sitting on our gerrit review while we make sure it looks as good on all our devices as it does in Cameron's video. 

# As it is still in review, some modifications may occur, so while this is most likely its final version, don't be surprised if we make some tweaks.
