Revision 1: Building the base of it, getting stuff to work. Included lots of duct tape to hold stuff together. Monitor required multiple hands to get up without breaking the thing.

Revision 2: Bolts. Everything got bolted.

Revision 3: Power wires, went from using 2 power wires (AC plugs) down to 1, i combined the one from the monitor directly to the xbox 360's power brick. Works like a charm.

Revision 4: Redid the VGA cable casing to make it 1/3rd its height, rearranged wires/made everything MUCH more compact. Made it look half way presentable..

(Future)
Revision 5: Fix the monitor issue. Don't like how the LCD touches the xbox directly. Some padding would be nice, etc. Also I'd like to implement the right angle connectors, and a metal bracket to replace the plastic one.

Update! I now wired all of the vga/audio/power connectors directly to the LCD's circuit board. This is a A+ monitor to use for portables AFAIK. It's a HP VF52. The boards are pre-split up to the power inverter/backlight power-r and the power/video/audio board.

Now it looks like a legit laptop sorta! :3


Last thing I wanna do for R5 is replace the plastic L bracket.
