That is pretty impressive. I wouldn't spend that much time on it, especially since I think there are much better lookking computer cases...but it's still pretty cool.

Yeah, when I saw that, I thought he was like, hardcore upgrading his xbox, than I realized he was just using the case for a custom PC, and it was less cool. It was prob a fun project, and if he got all the parts for free, than more power to him. Otherwise I don't see the point since I think the xbox case is pretty ugly anyway.

i still think the custom work done was impressive. though i do agree... the xbox case is hideous. i would rather have seen this done to a 360

Keep in mind that he actually hacked up an xbox developers unit. Something thats normally impossible for regular people to get. That makes the project a bit cooler, I think.

He also used the custom dongle that makes osx install without any hacking.

That's when I watched it through Nice work- I would like to learn some video editing skills. Then I would need to get the video off my DV...
