Steampunk is a science fiction sub-genre in which technology takes on a 1800's Victorian look, usually a lot of brass and gears, and almost everything is powered by steam. There exists a community of hobbyists who modify modern day technology to look like the fantasy technology of the Steampunk genre. my favorite type of mod-tech (modified technology) that these craftsmen produce are the "Steampunk Computers" in which the hobbyists hack the casings, keyboard, etc, in order to produce- well a picture is worth a thousand words, so I shall give you four of them.
Like it? If you do, or even if you don't, comments are more than welcome.
