Sadly, a lot of people do this stuff because they've been media-conditioned to think American-made technology is junk (like cars from Detroit), and deserves a good "art-ifying". There are dozens of mutilated bezels and whole sets turned freak-show-prop being displayed around Seattle as art.
Other people are such a happy blending of arrogant and ignorant attitudes toward anything thats soooo last-year. We are pretty spoiled as a whole, and if Mommy or Daddy doesn't give us a new one we have a mutilation-therapy session with something cool from our ignored past.
I'd almost buy the darn thing if I had the chassis for it. Every time I find an empty cabinet in a thrift store, etc., I ask if the "rest of it" is still in the back room. Maybe if they would stop accepting empty cabinets...
