Damn, that WOULD be nice to know what bondo you used for that. That's just the hardest thing im having trouble finding for my PS2M. That's one hell of an achievment, but XBOX in gen has not gotten anymore brownie points from me- and never will.

Great Job!!!

Wow. That's very cool. I can just imagine how much work it was. And it looks fantastic, well done.
For those of us who might attempt this someday could you provide some more info on the DC-DC converter/booster you used? And with those (sweet) batterys, what kind of battery life do you get?

Somebody digg, slashdot, kotaku, hackaday, etc. this. The world needs to know that the impossible has been done.

I'm glad it works well. Does the DVD drive IDE idea work as well as you wanted?

Uh holy crap. Look at your forums. A second ago, it was just spambots, now you've been hacked by some turkish dudes! That happened to me!

Wow Congrats!!! That looks really great. Do you think you could take a picture next to the size of your DCp for size comparison? I'm happy you finally got it done the way you wanted it

First off, congratulations on the best portable ever. This thing is so good that it toes the line between an ametuer job(like most of us), and something that you would expect to come from the company itself (not that bill would ever do that

)

You truly are amazing, an inspiration to us all. I am absolutely dumbfounded by your wonderful portables and your willingness to attempt the "impossible". Fantastic job.

undoubtly the BEST portable i've ever seen!

Holy crap. That thing takes skill, and you definatley have it.

A few tips for your inevitable SlashDotting:
1. Resize your pics, make them lower resolution thumbnails that you can click to view the larger version. Right now you're wasting a lot of bandwidth with full sized pics that are scaled in HTML. This is a sure-fire way to get your site's bandwidth maxed out very soon after SlashDot gets ahold of your URL.

2. The most interesting thing on your site right now is the completed XBox portable, make that the easiest thing to get to, and then they can see how it was made if they are more interested in it, which will save you a fair bit of bandwidth.

WOW. That was inspirational. In fact, it's inspired me enough to go work on my SJIII portable!......oh wait, it's 11:23

. Anyways, that is just incredible. If all my portables (notice how I said ALL

) turned out HALF as good as yours, I would be one happy dude.

Congrats,
CTFan

PS- Could you have pics of you actually playing the system? Please don't tell me that's the last picture on the completed screen, because I can't see that!
