    Default Briefcase - mod

    Hi, I'd like to show my latest (not yet finished) project:

    The test-computer I'm using was in great need of a new housing :


    and recently I got a briefcase , and I saw some interresting possibilities :


    First of all , holes had to be made , the only tools I needed were a drilling-machine and some files : plastic is real easy to work with :


    The CD_player was build in first :


    Next the various parts put together on a self-made chassis :




    And then put the ensemble in the case :


    Putting in some cables :


    allmost done:




    Testing with Ubuntu Feisty-beta:


    What needs to be done?
    *painting black the white and shiny parts you see to "stealth" the whole thing a bit (within the comming weeks)
    *finding black keyboard and mouse (asap)
    *buying a black flat-screen (money-issue,...)

    some specs (nothing hi-tech):
    PIII 1GHz
    512 MByte RAM
    2x 20GByte Maxtor HD
    Video 64 MByte on-board
    cd-player

    It remains a test-computer for Linux only

    but , I gave a new meaning to the "portable computer" thing
    and I'm allways open for sugestions
