case

v. to case out-- to swap out the internals of recently purchased piece of hardware so that you get new hardware, and then you return your old hardware in the new case to place of purchase thereby screwing retailers or manufacturers or both. The casing method works well on modular PC components... optical drives, computers, gaming systems, anything with a case. Similar to boxing. In other words, a white collar way to possibly steal expensive hardware.

1. Casing my 1TB hard drive that failed on day 10 has saved me many days-- maybe weeks-- that would normally be spent on trying to get a replacement through warranty work.

2. The cheapest way to get a blue-ray drive is to case it with an old 52x.

case

to case - verb

To maim someone's brain in a surreptitious attempt to silence and/or discredit them.

"Case" refers to the main character in Neuromancer, the book on which the Matrix was based. In Neuromancer, Case is poisoned by former crime bosses to give him symptoms of ALS, so that he can never use computers again.

1) The government didn't appreciate the attention he brought to the NSA's surveillance, so they cased him with bedbug poison.

2) I really don't know what happened to him. One week he was fine and the next he could barely carry on a conversation. I think he got cased by his CIA handler.
