Word from the wise: Don't ever post something here without showing proof first. Trust me, you're about to get hammered.

How fast is this "pretty fast rate"? How easily can you make them? How do you make them? Why don't you have pictures?

EDIT: WTF? That website has no mention of XBOX 360 portables at all! What are you trying to pull?

Well guys i'm really sorry about the pics. My computer crashed a couple weeks ago and I can't seem to find any drivers for my flash drives. Any way I will try to get them on as soon as I can. If anything I will get pictures of the one I'm working on now. It's not quite finished but getting very close.

As for how much. That really all depends.
Water cooled or just air cooled.
Custom color or graphic, or just normal.

A basic model, air cooled, normal paint, have been selling for around $2200.00. Thats you supplying the Xbox. I will eat all the parts and shipping it back to you. You will have to ship the xbox to me. Prices can go up from there depending on how you want your to look.

As for how fast is pretty fast. Oh about 1 a week. Thats just for a base model. Takes longer depending on how "custom" you want it. I build them as I get orders for them. So your looking at at least 1 week to a week and a half.

The website was really just a test run. I really only sell these local right now. Ben's forum is the only forum I have "advertised" in, my intentions are, if enough people would check out the website for the xbox's then I would advertise that way as well. I own the store on the website, and right now only have a store front for mobile audio and video, performance parts and access., but are expanding fast. Thats all, I'm really not pulling a fast one on you guys. I'm a gamer, and loved what Ben did with his xbox. I was willing to pay for one he built, but then decided to build my own. Then my friends and thier friends and so on wanted one and so it began.

This one is a picture of the back of the unit. Nice clean look and very versatile. Got every thing you need.

Damn! You did that on your first day of second grade? What did you do the second day?

'Twas sarcasm, my friend

Looks like a good start, but finished by tonight??

That thing is huge. What are you going to do for cooling? I feel a red ring just by looking at it.

Throwing it in a metal briefcase without much modification doesn't really make it a laptop. I would expect a lot more if I was shelling out $2200..........like basic cable management and access to the DVD drive.

That picture was only a test to see if everything worked. As you see it did. As far as just throwing it in a briefcase not the story at all. Yes, the base is a briefcase, but many changes are being made.
The dvd drive is not in its permanent place. It was simply set there for testing purposes only. As for cooling, I ran it for 12 hours straight, I put in 2 more fans and a few more air ducts then what is pictured. It had no trouble at all, no jumpy picture and wasn't nearly as hot as you would think it would get.
Trust me I have done my homework, There has been truly a lot of work done to it. I just don't have a picture right now to justify it. I will try to post a more recent picture when we get to a stopping place.
