1. 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?

20. 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.

23. 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.

29. Do you sell X Box 360 Lap tops and can you save games on to the hard drive

30. 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. 🙂

38. Wow still no 3rd part what’s going on with this. PS your first attempt was with water cooling why not use it in the newer versions of the xbox laptop?

39. Wow, people keep asking in the comments where part 3 is and I found it in less than 2 minutes. Was I the only one who thought of clicking Ben’s name on http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/25/how-to-make-an-xbox-360-laptop-part-2/ to get to the list of articles he has made and click part 3 (or in the url just change the 2 to a 3) to get to this http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/22/how-to-make-an-xbox-360-laptop-part-3/ ? Anyways, Ben, you are amazing. I am only 13, though I have always had an interest in these kinds of things. I recently found out about you and was amazed, And that’s when I thought all you made was the Wii laptop, the first creation of yours I saw. You have inspired me and I hope I will be able to do something like this 🙂

40. There is a 3rd part, just Google Xbox laptop part 3. I am wondering how to make a case for this.
