    While this is quite impressive, ultimately I think the Xbox was little more than a custom PC, so it stands to reason a laptop-sized version of the console could be made somewhat easily.

    Holy jesus, that is quite amazing.

    Does anyone know if Ben Heck has a kid? haha

    I would love to get an old Xbox and make something like this for myself. I already am planning on making a very small, quiet PC for running Boxee and a linux fileserver.

    It looks like it has less volume than the original Xbox controller!

    @Andre Ondre: Considering there's a 320gb hard drive, couldn't he just keep a copy on it?

    Edit: From a comment on the original article:

    "The games are stored on the HDD. I can either open it up, hook up the DVD-Drive, and rip them, or rip them with another modded Xbox and transfer them via ftp. The Xbox's controller ports are really just USB 1.0 (or 1.1) ports with 1 added wire for lightguns and a clever disguise. I made two Xbox controller to USB adapters so you can use them with this Xbox."
