Xbox 360 Laptop “Making of”
Parts 1 and 2 are now live on Engadget.com. Check them out!
There will be at least one more part, possibly up to 4. Also I should have an update on the VCSp Rev 5.1′s soon.

Hey, on part 1 of the tutorial, you leave a link to digikey for a male header. When i click it it shows a expired set. What’s the part number for the male head required for your tutorial?
Other than that, awesome work!!! I really cannot wait for part 3 to come out.
April 25th, 2007 at 11:44 pm
Yeah! Can’t wait for the 3rd part!

Im attempting to make my original xbox into a laptop computer and i am running into problems on the av connection to the monitor. i am using an old apple laptop monitor i got for free to save money and i dont know how to connect it onto the xbox av output port. I was wondering if anyone had any kind of pin out that would point out witch contact points on the xbox av output i had to use.

Is there a way to pay you for creating the XBOX 360 Laptop? It looks really cool and I would love to have one. Is it possible for you to create the laptop shell and I can insert the XBOX with a walkthrough if that is more feasible?
October 25th, 2008 at 12:05 pm

About how much was the estimated cost of this project? I was planning on fixing a Red Ring of Death Xbox360 and using that for this, so I was wondering what It would cost for the other parts involved.
November 11th, 2008 at 11:54 pm
Hey nice job Ben, i am doing the same thing but when is part three coming out?
December 15th, 2008 at 8:00 pm
Was wondering if I could get some wiring directions? If so, email is bray06@live.com… Thanks

I must be honest. After reading the entire article on that 360 laptop of yours, I sat here for like ten minuets staring at the photos and reeking of jealousy. Haha.
I’m VERY impressed with your work man.
I may embark on a journey like this someday,
provided I can actually manage the patience…

Do you sell X Box 360 Lap tops and can you save games on to the hard drive
June 30th, 2009 at 11:40 am
To answer Jericho, he says he charges a LOT (I think it was $5000, iirc?) and with all 360s you can save games on the Hard Drive as of the New Xbox Experience update. :)
