this guy is crazy smart. He turned an xbox 360 into a laptop. Everything from the watercooling and keyboard to the casing was hand made.

Great job.

i think it only acts as xbox 360.

but has there even been a custom OS released for the modded 360's?

No custom OS yet and I doubt there will be in the near future. The Xbox was literally a PC in a box which is why you could run a slightly modified version of Linux without too much trouble. Although I did eventually replace my RAM and hard drive so I guess it wasn't that easy to turn it into a decent computer. Anyways, the 360 is still very similar to a PC but it does have some important changes in architecture...

He mixed copper and aluminum parts in the watercooling though, hopefully he put some anti-corrosive stuff in the water.

This guy's turned the XB360 into a laptop, made a PS2, N64, NES, and Colecovision portable, combined a 2600 with a PS2, and made an Atari 800 into a laptop... hopefully he knows what he's doing ;)

Have any of his other projects involved mixing watercooling with aluminum and copper?

That is pretty damn cool. I wouldn't be surprised if linux is ported to the 360 eventually if all the drm can be worked around. That keyboard does not look fun to type on though.

MS wont gove him a penny for that idea. Infact they'll prolly find a way to sue him for bajillion bucks for taking their system and then use his idea and name it something like "The Xbook"

I saw this like 2 months ago, but still it is amazing to see. I want one so bad, but i dont really like an Xbox, make a PS3 into this, and i will take one.
