Has anyone built their own laptop?

If so, can you refer us to some nice URL's for parts/information?

Oh c'mon now.

well, you could salvage old parts from broken laptops on eBay. other than that, i haven't heard of anyone doing this. too many proprietary parts make things expensive. i do look forward to the day when it's possible

No.

 

[Spac3d]

Nope. It sounds like a pain to get everything crammed into such a small space.

unless someone would to spend 100's to 1000's more than it would cost to buy a normal laptop...gl finding such an idiot or person with too much money/time on their hands ; P
