Xbox 360 laptop in progress

[Ben Heck] posted and update on a project he’s doing for THQ. This latest Xbox 360 laptop is being built as a contest prize. It’s based on a 60GB Xbox 360 and is slightly larger than the previous laptops. It can accommodate a standard 360 hard drive without modification. An Xbox Live camera is included as well.

We hadn’t realized how many Xbox 360 laptops [Ben] had built. There’s the original. The one he built as a how-to for Engadget. Then, the one based on an Elite and now this.

“the ps3 laptop will follow this tradition, mostly because the ps3 is pretty damn thick to begin with and there’s nowhere to go but thinner ;)”

Does this mean that there’s a PS3 laptop coming? That should be fun…

Look good, I like the idea of being able to swap out the hard drive, and the integrated camera is a nice touch.

Replay to gm.

do some research before you write. Ben has already built a PS3 laptop and had it auctioned off only to give the money earned to charity.

What a noble cause. I admire him.

My question about the PS3 laptop, how does he deal with the heat that it puts out? I can just see that thing burning through the table it’s on.

He probably uses a heatpipe. And I am sure he thoroughly stress-tests these ;)
