Ok, i didnt want to openly admit it in the title, but this is my first mod!
I got this hunk of junk from my netball club because the harddrive blew and they got a new one. I'll be revamping it inside to give to a friend of mine, and seeing as im not charging her for it, I might aswell use it as a test subject!!! MUAHHAHAHAHAAAAA
Well anyway, this tiny piece of junk is a HP Pavilion 6511.
I have an old dvd burner from a dvd unit which i have to make a faceplate for. I need to buy a new hard drive, 2 sticks of 264mb sd ram, and perhaps a new processor, tho i'll be hard pressed to find one.
For the case, Shorty (my friend for whom this will be, and whom i will refer to quite often) wanted a Naruto theme, and being a decent artist, she's going to draw a shillouete for a side window.
Seeing as this is my first mod, i'm keeping it VERY simple, and i'll only be adding bits and pieces and painting. because the case is allready an interesting shape, i only intend to paint it and do simple mods. I'll save the big guns for my own masterpiece.
Besides, Shorty doesn't want to spend too much on this, and seeing as she doesn't have a job, we're probably talking single digits!
This is the DVD burner i'll be using, it doesn't have a housing, so i'll have to make one.
