A little off topic. but its a symbol that represents hate. enough said.
The British didn't slaughter people all over the world, or hunt Mauris for sport on horseback (for example) because they loved them -- they considered them inhuman. The only life worth respecting was British life. So returning to my question, why isn't the Union Jack reviled in the same way the Nazi symbol is?

Oh sure compare a few racist Brits to the Nazis, yeah that's a fine comparison. Us Brits have never been anything like the Nazis. Did we turn genocide into a methodical, industrial multi national operation? No we didn't. In fact we stood up to the Nazis when the rest of the world either surrendered, sided with the Nazis or simply looked the other way. Maybe that's why the union jack isn't anything like the f*cking swastika
As for that custom PC well it's one of the most lame and unimaginative that I've ever seen.
what cracks me up most about that is even the lil vents are nazi...
Makes me wonder just how "CUSTOM" I can get my next PC.
So I agree with BradM on this... def. stylish -&- offensive.

That is the beauty of the British Empire -- viewed by the British as a wonderful institution that bought civilization the world, and was full of happy subjects of the Queen / King In reality, it was designed to dominate and steal everything that they came across. Look at the quiet genocide of the native Canadians that took place at the end of the 19th and through the 20th century -- or as it was known "the final soloution for the Queen's red children" -- this became Hitlers model for the domination of Eastern Europe and the Ukraine. Or during the brave opposition to the Nazi's how the RAF bombed Dresden and killed 100,000 civilians in one night to test how much incendiary was required to exterminate that number of people, in preparation of the US bombing of Tokyo and Kyoto. Very noble... I am sure.

I'm thinking it might be a photoshop job... it seems unlikely someone would be able to find fan/vent covers like that...

You are right, while the british empire was a triumph of strength and nationalism it was a racist killing machine. Most people on here are uneducated and dropped out of school at the age of 15 because they realised they were thick as a donkeys ass. I am british born and bred, and proud of it, i love my country but it will not stop me from acknowledging we had a dodgy past, even if we did rule the world.
You will find people crying on here for the jews, when a pic of a PC with a swastika symbol on it, but if something is taking the piss out of blacks, muslims, asians, buddhists w/e it is all OK. Get with the program people, jews are no more important than anyone else on the planet.
Though this does not discount that the holocaust was one of the worst moments in human history.
but i wish people would just think before they post.
Btw since we are on the topic, can anyone tell me how many people died in the holocaust? I have seen numbers ranging from 800,000 to 13 million, there must be an official number?

What history books are you reading? If "the final soloution for the Queen's red children" is such a well known term for an act of genocide by us Brits then why when I searched for that term didn't I find it?
Dresden was considered at the time by both the British and American (yes they bombed the city too) military to be a legitimate target and as WW2 was well before the age of the smart missile the only way to bomb a place was to blanket a wide area. Fact is if Germany hadn't let the Nazis cut a bloody path through Europe and Russia there wouldn't have been any bombings at all so that's the price they paid for making a deal with the devil

ask IBM, they provided the punch card machines to keep track of the jews..
many US companies profited from the german nazi reign and they new exactly what was going on there...

You sound like a Christian does when someone challenges their version of the world and history. Do you think if the Nazi's had won WW2 they would have proudly produced volumes of text books recording their war crimes....? Of course not, and neither did the British. Check here for some history you will not be taught in schools - http://canadiangenocide.nativeweb.org/intro2.html -- Britain has a shameful history in Canada, which resulted in the virtual extermination of an entire race of peoples. This is nothing to be proud of, and even more shameful is the British establishments inability to recognize our quite horrible wrongs. If it were evil for Hitler / Nazis to try and exterminate a race of people, then we must be equally evil for succeeding in all but exterminating an entire race of people.
You seem to misunderstand me -- I am not condoning the Nazis or supporting them. But just because they are evil doesn't make us good by default. The victors write the history books. Britain's biggest problem with the Nazis was the threat they posed to British supremacy, not with their treatment of Jews, Gypsies, Slavs, or Trade Unionists. You have to remember that the former King of England was in league with Hitler to be reinstated to the throne if Hitler won, and you cannot get more British than a bunch of inbred German pretenders to the monarchy than the royal family, can you ;)
"5,993,900 Jewish people dead because of that symbol."
No, they died because a sociopath. The symbol predates Nazi Germany by thousands of years. Shit, there used to be a church on 4th st and Fillmore in Phoenix that had swastikas engraved in it... along with other religious symbols. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swastika
Now, the pictures of Hitler on the front places it in the dirtbag category.
