I thought this was funny so I posted it. It's a monitor in a computer lab that they modded so the plug would come out the front for some reason.

Hi, that is a big picture.

It looks like someone just got bored and was screwing around.  There doesn't seem to be any functional purpose for it.

Mr CK, thanx for resizing before posting.
Ow.

I would have to assume that there was some purpose at some time.  It seems like a lot of work for just no reason. And although the craftsmanship could be better, it could have been a lot worse too.

it's not hard to do at all
as a matter of fact it can be done in a matter of minutes. just a matter of taking off the cover and drilling a hole. perhaps resoldering 3 wires. nothing more to it.
but it certainly looks amusing.

Quiet frankly try resoldering about 7 wires depending on your monitor.  Monitor cables are not universal, found that out in computer repair.  Yes we accutally fix power supplies, monitors, even fixed a couple cracked mobo's  its fun, I just hang out in there right now though, not going on my schedule till next fall.
