Saw this at Gizmodo and thought i'd share it with everyone. Probably the first great 360 mod to date.

That's pretty cool.

 

[Zoglog]

nifty, but that guy must have a whole lot of free time.

 

[Ma12kez]

Wow that's awesome.

 

[DisturbedZen]

If it could still perform the X360 tasks + have its own LCD screen then it is viable.

 

[Beana Blasta]

damn, thats ing awsome

 

[Zoglog]

it'd be pretty funny if it overheated after the first day and broke.

 

[dastly75]

Wow...musta taken a very long time to build.

 

[whoknows]

It's water cooled I doubt this will overheat.

If you go to the forums on his website, he and other people there have made some incredibly badass portables.

 

[danked]

yeah saw that pretty sweet i must say

Impressive, sort of pointless, but if it really works impressive nonetheless. What's the point in making it into a laptop though? Do I really need a built in keyboard for a 360? I'd think making like a xbox-branded LCD monitor/TV with built-in 360 functionality would make more sense.

Really awesome I hope that kid actually goes school or works for a good company thats pretty amazing.

Or to Photoshop.

Definitely not a photoshop. Turning systems into badass portables is all this guy does.

 

[Graystone]

Thats awesome and they said the 360 was going to be unhackable or something to that effect.

 

[bil4ltool]

This is incredible!

 

[chodax]

that is pretty tight.

The keyboard wasn't necessary but if it wasn't there than it would just be wasted space on top of the 360 components.

My point was the design of a 360 laptop is totally pointless. It can't run off a battery (a tleast it doesn't look like) so it's not portable really. I could achieve the same effect by getting one of those LCD montiors that you can just attach to the top of the 360. Sure it looks cool but unlike many of this guy's other work I don't think this serves much of a purpose (if any). Maybe I'm looking too deeply into it though...

yeah i agree if its not a functional laptop too and just for looks and design then i dont see the point either. but its pretty cool to learn how to do that stuff, i wish i could lol
