The same guy that made it, retrofitted a ps3 controller into a 360 controller.
The guys has way too much time on his hands.

Yeah I've seen that. Some other guy made a 360 LAPTOP (I hope you mispelled it on purpose) and engadget decided to make their own. I found out about making a DIY projector from that site too.

That took some impressive fab work.

The soldering and extending the cables is easy. Fabing up that case is the crazy part.

I would have probably just modded the stock case and glued a screen to it...lol

Cram everything into a smaller case on a system that already runs hot as hell
