MacBook Modded With Second Monitor Inside Logo
An anonymous reader from the Macmod forum wrote in with this appealing hack: "This is one of the coolest mods I've seen all year. Mac Moder EdsJunk submitted this mod to our forums late Thursday night. By cracking open a MacBook he was able to put a second monitor inside of the screen. The end result is sweet. The second monitor can make the Apple logo have any kind of background, like the clown fish, or the flurry screen saver."
Wonder if you can you play battleship with it...

Relatively trivial?
If this is something you consider commonplace or ordinary, I'd like to know what you'd actually consider impressive or of merit.
I'm quite fond of the G4 towers, and I hear similarly good, or better, things about the G5 and Xeon ones; but their all-in-one designs, laptop and desktop, seem to have escaped from a utopian universe where HDDs never have to be replaced.
The back light is off when the case is closed, so you can't see this. This is just a "toy" as you said, or more accurately a way of showing off (which is what the glowing Apple logo has always been). The sell an amazing number of machines because of that logo. It's easy to look around a room and see who's cool and who isn't.
If you just installed a second screen in a laptop lid, I doubt that's going to phase you...
The Mac cannot hire anyone, it's a brand of computers.
Maybe you meant Apple?
They should import the image from the iSight camera :)
