That's what I meant to say that I'd do. And no, I don't smoke ANYTHING. I actually was planning on a PCB which would eventually be put into the motherboard slot and I used the term motherboard. Shows how much I know.

egad.

if the guy who's doing a PC-p could give us lowly peeps a how-to, I might do that instead
Several of us have tried making PCp's. I've tried three times to make one, and that one annoying guy who was banned a while ago tried umpteen times. Various ideas for PCp's get anywhere from the pre-planning stage to actually buying parts, but only Tom61 has managed to nearly finish one.

What would you use your PCp for, if you don't mind me asking?
Actually, I want to use it to try to update it via firmware and be able to play the latest games with a "hardware transform and lighting"-capable graphics card. My current portable PC sucks at playing games because Gateway decided that they'd rather keep the damn integrated graphics chip (which busts my hump, because the Intel integrated graphics chip sux0rs). I want to brain the idiot who made that decision.
