Desktop Mac Mod based on PowerBook Laptop - Nice
Posted on Apr 16, 08 07:55 AM PDT


To build a thin desktop machine, there’s nothing like starting from a laptop motherboard. The design is simple enough to be built “at home”, but yet elegant enough to sit nicely on the desk and be shown around the web.
“the case is made of two sheets of white acrylic, bolted together by socket countersunk screws. I’ve used 15mm chrome pipe as the four spacers between the acrylic sheet. The perforated steel was cut to my specifications by a very helpful chap found on eBay. Cutting the CD drive slot was a little tricky, as was drilling the power button hole, but once done they seem to function ok.”(Richard Hunt, Modder) Good job Richard!
