I'm gonna call BS on this one, it'* probably just a video of the startup screen, and you didn't see and user interaction except for putting in the cd rom

That is amazing. I guess If it can be thought up, it can be done, especially with electronics these days.

Im sure not just anyone could do this type of conversion. You would have to have a strong electronic background and understanding to how things work.

I want one!!

It is legit, I've gone over the entire modification process myself. (All last night) It took 3 months to do. And in order to fit all the boards into a lower profile area all the caps had to be removed and have right angle connectors installed for the lowest profile assembly possible.

etc etc etc

Kinda cool, I could do it. But... not cool enough for the effort. Just hook it up to the big screen, it'll be much better.
