Keep in mind that these guys are GENIUS!!! You take apart the brand new Xbox 360, a LCD monitor to create something that has not been tested, yet.
I was heavily into case moding a while back. I turned Sony 300 CD changer to a computer case--complete with automatic door open and tray ejecting, front port USB and Firewire, vacuum fluorescent display, blue light power LED... the works. And at the end it looked as thought nothing had changed. A stock look. I should upload a photo one day.

Something to look forward to before you click on the above link.
I saw this a little while ago, and mentioned it to one of my friends who plays their 360 almost constantly. Now that we're back at school, he wants something to do while he has no lessons, and the idea of a laptop version was brilliant. He was a little disappointed when I said it wasn't in production. Its great to see people actually doing things for themselves and making things to fit their needs.
that reminds me of the guy who would do case mods on all the classic consoles to make them portable. i wish i had the skill to do things like this myself.
My god, this is pure genius at its best. I showed the pictures to my family and they all agreed: it's just pure brilliance. And most people didn't think it possible.
No doubt the people behind it will be approched with a job offer from Microsoft... lol. But seriously, I really hope that Microsoft gets ideas from this project, 'cos I'd love to buy something like this.
it looks awesome but im a bit of a skeptic because i remember the photoshop job they did on a design for the 360. I think it may be fake but i could be wrong. i hope im wrong it looks heaps cool
thats just sick, I wonder if he will customize a Ps3 when it comes out. Man this dude should be like at MIT or something, I wonder if Microsoft seen this yet cuz they will be overjoyed on something like this.
heh, thats pretty cool. I would be scared shitless doing something like this, but it's pretty cool to see something like this be doable (makes me want to waste my next paycheck trying, lol )
This xbox 360 laptop is the best thing ever! I totaally want one!
How do you think this works..
Ben Heckendorn has been up to his tricks again. This time he built a 14 pound, water cooled 17 inch XBox 360 aluminum cased laptop. It's got all the outputs you could ever need. This one is very good. He was kind enough to write up the build and do a nice photo shoot. Oh, this is very, very nice.

I got a couple of MP3 albums from my friends collection, and I wanted to rip theses CD's to my
Xbox 360, to use them as background music when I play my games. Having them burned to a CD-RW, and
putting the CD into my Xbox 360. When finished building tracklist, some of the albums comes with
tags already filled out for the album name, the artist, tracks and genre , so its only to press Rip
CD and everything is done. But some of the albums I burned, have no information at all. So I have to
manually edit the name of tracks, artist and so on. Now theres a wonderful additi....
1. Xbox 360 console built on new processor, this runs much cooler, quicker than the standard
processor for the Xbox 360 premium, which are to this day prone to overheating known as the ring of
fire Or in other words Hardware failure meaning they have to be sent back to Microsoft for repairs,
although Premium 360s built end of 2007 onwards have been built using newer 60/65nm processor
chipset. 2. Wireless Controller included, exactly the same as whats included with the £250 Premium
package. 3. Standard AV cable, exactly the same as whats included with the £250 Premium pac....
Okay so me and my friend were playing guitar hero and all of a sudden the screen got all block like
and the graphics all turned into green swirly squares. So we thought maybe the A/v cord was loose or
something i turned off the xbox and re-plugged the a/v cords in now every time i turn the xbox on it
flashes 1 red light and says Error E74 in about every language i know of... I have called
1-800-4myxbox and all they said is that they only fix xbox's with the 3 red light error.... what
do i do? thanks.....
Ive done some searching around and understand that it is possible to create xbox 360 games from the
windows platform. I believe the best way to do this would be using XNA. Just wondering if 1)
anyone had any success doing this and 2) if anyone has created xbox games from windows BESIDES XNA?

I'm thinking about buying a xbox 360, full my cash, I got my corvette for my birthday last
month, and getting my my license back soon, so I don't have a use for this money I was saving up
for a car.. I just need a hundred more dollars, which I'll have by next month (I usually only
get $100 a month, as I usually save some for college each month, and gas, and clothes and food)
so hopefully I can get a xbox 360. I plan on getting halo 3 as my first game, I heard xbox 360 comes
with 1 month of xbox live is this right? Also, for xbox live, what do I NEED besi....

Pretty much it all started out me and my other two friends. We were sitting down in the living room
watching TV, when I said "We need an Xbox 360" My friend was all "yeah that'd be cool" Then I
said "dude you could sell your drumset for one" We all paused and looked at each other After that
we screamed running outside to the car. So we decided to drive to his house which is about....
30-40 minutes away? So yeah we went to his house, picked up his drumset. After than we headed back
30-40 minutes to my house. Dropped off and got Sodas and etc. We got back into the c....
I got into modding just recently and i think it makes the game and the system a lot more enjoyable
than the system is when it is regular. Does anybody else here like modding xbox's or halo 2? If
so what are you favorite mods to make and stuff like that. Discuss it here. If you don't like
modding too bad don't start a flame war or anything. Just ignore this topic. And to let you all
know i do not cheat in matchmaking. I just play on xbox connect and with friends when i mod. I do
not play on live. But if you are new to modding and want to get a good site for pr....

I've been hearing a lot about 360 from all of my friends, they all say that the graphics are
amazing compared to Xbox.. Currently I have an Xbox and I want to upgrade to a 360 eventually but I
don't know whether it's really worth the money right now.. Will it come down in price in the
near future? The other concern I have is that I want to be able to play my original Xbox games on
my 360, is this possible? Is it really worth the 400 some dollars (Canadian)? Should I wait until
later, maybe Christmas sales? I should add, I don't want any hardcore PS3 ....
Hi, I've recentley got myself an xbox 360 but unfortunatley my TV isnt an HDTV (getting one
soon) so I can't play in HD which I've heard is much better. Luckily, my laptop is 1080p HD

As most of the gaming fans know by now the xbox 360 is coming on in november and the ps3 is expected
to make an apperance sometime next year. So which do you think will make a bigger impression on the
people? Well in my opinion the xbox 360 is going to do a great job. They are coming out near
christmas time which would make a great gift. The games that are coming out wil blow away alot of
the competion. Elder Scrolls: Oblivion will by far be the most popular game for the xbox 360 once
that hits the stores. Once the ps3 comes out i dont expect to see that great of an im....
I am getting an Xbox 360 for my birthday (27th of April). Soon after this we are hoping to set up a
network...I am wondering if Xbox live will work with our router, on the site it says only wireless

wired ones work too?....
I am currently using an original XBOX and i'm looking to buy a new one.......I love my XBOX but
i'm hearing some bad things about the 360 and i'm hearing that Playstation 3 could be outta
this world. Does anyone know the good and bad about each of these systems so that i can make a
better decision.....either to buy the 360 or wait for the PS3.....I personally love the XBOX because
when playing sports games the graphics are head and shoulders above all the other systems.......i
don't know if 360 holds the same characteristics....
Well we just got an xbox, I know there are tons of games out there but I don't know most of the

Will the XBOX 360 have keyboard and mouse support? I really want the system but I just don't
think that I will be able to adapt very well to using a controller for shooting games. I have been
using a mouse and keyboard for years, so I'm wondering if there will be a way for me to continue
using a keyboard and mouse on the 360? Your title must be descriptive! Editing. ....
I finally got to play Call of Cuty 2 for XBOX 360!! I must admit that I was completely blown
away by the game in every aspect!! To start off, the game ran extremely fast!!
almost no loading times pretty much and the gameplay was smoother than anything I've ever seen,
no sudden skips or lag spots anywhere!! Next, and prolly the thing that caught my attention
the most, were the incredible graphics!! I got to play it in High Definition, and I was
blown away by the rendering and physics in the game!! As much as I want the P....

I am curious as to how you get a save game off the Xbox hard drive and onto a computer. I am sure
that brienj could answer this. I am assuming by somehow browsing the network to find the Xbox hard
drive. Is there a tool needed to do this? I am assuming that the Xbox drive is hidden to normal
network browsing.....
Hi I have to buy a present for a 14 year old kid. I know he has an xbox system but not too many
games as his parents are a little broke right now. I want to blow his mind with a game that everyone
has been talking about, but which one? I am a PC gamer and know doom 3 is on the xbox but is there
anything better out there? I want to get him action, shooter stuff. Thanks again Patrick....
has anyone ever heard of the next xbox console? its supposed to be phantom?something like that. I
heard the development kits are out to game makers, and im kind of excited to see screenshots of
games, but i cant remember the dang consoles name, any help?....
My vote is for Halo 2. I mean, I would vote for Halo; except I believe that the new features and
weapons and vehicles, etc. that is in Halo 2 is a lot better than those of the first of the Halo
Series. The mulitplayer in Halo 2 is THE BEST. Banshees in multiplayer, many fun levels, XBox Live
PLAY! In my opinion, Halo 2 truly IS, the BEST GAME EVER.....
