The Xbox 360 Elite Laptop
As mods go, the latest one from modding god Ben Heck is something refreshingly different: the Xbox 360 Elite laptop, complete with Halo 3 theme.
Why anyone would want one is another reason but you have to admire the dedication of one man to taking consoles and handhelds and doing to them things that the original designers did not intend.
For gamers who find life on the road hard without their console fix you get an Xbox 360 Elite, with 120GB hard drive, married to a 17in display and keyboard. The Elite in question uses the 65nm chip so shouldn’t melt on your lap and sports a Web-cam built into the bottom of the display for those Xbox LIVE ribbing sessions.
Thanks to in-built Wi-Fi, you should be able to game-on from just about any decent coffee shop these days. Go here to see the labour of love come to life. Or, see the Elite laptop in action in a short video after the jump.
For those who haven’t seen just how weird and wonderful Ben Heck’s earlier creations are, check out the Atari 800 laptop, NES Micro and the Atari Rev 5.1.-Martin Lynch
