Ben Heck's PS3 Slim Laptop

Posted by Soulskill on from the making-small-bigger dept.

We've occasionally discussed Ben Heckendorn's various console modifications, and he's now come out with a new one: a laptop version of the PS3 Slim. It has volume control buttons for the built-in speakers, and plenty of vents for cooling. The display is a 17" widescreen panel, and the Slim's hardware doesn't fill that much space in the case, so there's a neat little compartment for the power cord. Ben's blog post shows details of the laptop's construction.

    Tisn't something I would care to carry around with me.

    Because real laptops cannot possibly run games.

    No, but real laptops don't *only* play games. If you bring a gaming console to a meeting, it's pretty clear what you plan on doing with it.
