Xbox 360 Laptop Creator Unveils Sleek New Design
A couple years ago we discussed Benjamin Heckendorn's modification which turned the Xbox 360 into a laptop. Now, he's completed a new, revamped design which includes a removable Xbox 360 hard drive, an internal Wi-fi module and a new button layout. It looks a lot nicer, too. He's also posted a description of how he did it.
From what I gather of the few posts I've read of his over the time, he prefers new and varied challenges and isn't overly enthusiastic about becoming an assembly line.
Not saying that would be what Microsoft would hire him for but he would be stifled working on microsoft only products.
Not to mention the fact that great hacker he might be, it might not be true that he has the right type of experience in mass production manufacturing in order to really aid them. The cost of these units is quite high. It would go down but the interest in one, considering price, would be at best, niche.
I record my sleeptalking
ummm he creates this in order to sell.... "they" do have it.
