Why use MicroBlocks computers for your builds?
MicroBlock was the first to release a pixel computer, and has set a trend of computer developments with wrench events. Even with new computers popping up in the gallery, MicroBlocks carefully designed builds still seem to be the best. MicroBlock constantly provides new models with sturdy and realistic events to suite your builds so you don't have to waste time on the little interior touches. Whats more, they are made to simulate the function of real computers, have finer details, and best of all are designed so you can duplicate them with ease!

MicroBlock also has an alliance between Blockintosh, and encourages you to check out their topic too. We assure you that MicroBlock and Blockintosh provide the best electronic events and addons for your builds.

oh gawd no... why make a mac?


PCs are way better than Macs. They can play ALOT more games.
Anyways...good build!

yeah the ONLY real plus for macs in my opinion is the fact that there are very few to no viruses.

And once again, OS drama. In a topic that had nothing to do with them.

Haven't look at it yet, but the concept sounds neat.

Very nice, Icy.
I must go play with it. :3

Thank you all. I decided to build this because I was tired of seeing 1 block glow up screens and text based computers. I made the insides change and work because that just makes it a little more real.

The events are just toggling, highlights, emitters and relays but it was very hard to make. For example I had to remap each of the 32 bricks without really seeing them. But after I did the first 3 programs it got easy. Each row of 4 color change events downwards = the color row sideways.

Example:




Also the on and off buttons basically change the color and FX of every screen brick. It total they contain around 74 events. So many that I had to make another toggle event enabled because the textbox wouldn't allow any more toggling.

So I feel its quite complex. I haven't seen anything like this yet.
