Somehow, [acidx] knew that I coveted a libretto for years. He sent in his writeup on modding his Libretto 50ct to be a bit more useful. The mods are pretty basic, he overclocked it to 133Mhz and added a ps/2 port.

This one reminds me of [sprite_tm]s keyboard light mod. [Jeff] modded a usb bluetooth module and mounted it internally on his tablet. He connected a small circuit to two the the stock buttons to buffer/de-bounce them to allow simultaneous pressing to activate/deactivate the module.

The Sony PEG-UX50 was an impressive package when it was released in 2003. It had a 480x320 screen, keyboard, convertible screen, built-in camera, WiFi and Bluetooth.

This little hack was sent in by [andrew], he built it specifically for the long flight from Australia to the US. The idea is simple, but I wouldn't have considered it given the cost of decent D Cells these days.

I've known this was coming for a while. [Ben]'s been working hard on this for a while. He's built his second Xbox 360 laptop. But this time he's putting up a three part How-To series on building it for engadget.

Myriam a. k. a. [tnkgrl] decided that the the Averatec 1050 laptop was sorely in need of some Bluetooth and was tired of losing a port to a USB dongle.

I get an email asking for this almost monthly, and [PUNiSH3R]'s take on this covers everything pretty well. He uses some interesting tricks with WINE to get enough performance to play a DVD on the remote display.

According to Apple, all of their current machines are compatible with their new 802. 11n wireless hardware. The guys at MacBidouille wanted to know if they could get it functioning in their early rev macbook core duo.

Sure, maybe you're sick of hearing about [Ben]'s work, but he's finally giving up the goods on building that Xbox 360 laptop. It's not your average slap it in a case and splinch on a screen project, so you'll just have to deal with a few more posts as he pumps out this series.

what do you get when you mix a hitachi trk-8200hr boombox and the fujitsu stylistic 1200 tablet pc? more retro you can shake your checkered vans at. i really like the idea of gutting out an old school boom box and using a tablet pc to mimic the original interface, rad.
