I needed a way to protect the Lego card from curious fingers. We don't own the Laser enclosure device, so the card just hangs off the side of the computer. No good.
Michael Mulhern (via Facebook) humorously suggested I could make the enclosure out of Lego. I thought that was a fine idea.
So here's what I did today:

Satellite dish is, of course, non-functional...
The whole top comes off for card/cable access. I might hinge it.
The enclosure is highly functional and good for a laugh.
About the self-adhesive velcro attaching it to the computer: I felt bad doing it, because I spent so much time cleaning the case, but I needed a quick/easy way to attach the enclosure and also remove it. I know that GooGone will come to the rescue when I someday need to remove the adhesive.
