To view this case mod, go here.



Specs:
4 year old Gateway laptop not worth mentioning.

Mods:
Took out the lcd and mounted it inside a tv case. Extended the power button so that the tv's button works to power on the laptop.

I didn't take this thing anywhere so I decided to put it in this tv, so that it takes up less space on my desk.

nice mod though 8/10
 
Lol, nice thing to play with.
 
awesome good way to recycle old stuff too 8.5/10
 
lol this one confused me you say you wanted to take up less room on your desk and your tv was obviously broken and in the way so why not take the tv to the dump and just keep the laptop lol unless you just wanted to play around like but odd seems the tv is bigger so using more room lol

I was talking about the actual desk space it takes up. When the laptop is open normally, it took up as much space as the monitor laying flat. This way it only takes up about 4 inches by 15 inches.
 
Hahaha at least no one is going to steal it! Nice one 7/10
 
I voted 4/10 because:

not a linux lover realy but good job with what you got there
