1337!! Xbox 360 laptop FTW - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

Ben was commissioned by a generous benefactor to somehow make a 360 "good to go" a la the Crunchwrap Supreme -- and since this is the great Mr. Heckendorn we're talking about, slapping a hinged LCD onto an out-of-the-box console simply wouldn't do. Instead, Ben spent three months designing and building the so-called Xbox 360p, machining a custom aluminum laptop enclosure by hand into which he stuffed a keyboard, 1,280 x 720 Westinghouse LCD, and get this -- even a custom-built water cooling system to replace the 360's stock, bulky heat sinks. The end result is a polished, professional looking (albeit heavy -- this machine weighs in at about 14 pounds) laptop complete with WiFi, USB ports, obligatory glowing green ring, and converged power supply so that the monitor and gaming system only require a single cable snaking out the back.

*Sigh* If only I had time to be this geeky. My poor 360 remains bland.

Xbox 360p

that is awesome, I wonder if they ever decide to sell that. although it'd get changed up a bit I bet that thing would sell

i'd buy one. what else do you need. but does it play pc games or 360 games?

That's badass.

Does it do O.S. functions too??

Its just a 360 with a usb keyboard attached to it and put in a different layout with a 17in lcd. Its bad ass, and i'd take one in a second. Im pretty sure the only things it plays are the standard media that a 360 will play.
