What size of screen is that?

What kind of temps do you get in your box?

Where do you play it at? Seems a little high for a normal desk. Do you have a stand for it?

What kind of speakers? Or is it headphones only?

Is it easy to carry to a friends house?

Dear all, i use a LCD Dell 19", 3 fans (2 at back, 1 inside), wireless keyboard and mouse, temps of case alway at 32-37oC. I put 2 small speakers on the surface, you can see them at last pic., and can use headphone. I place the case on the office chair's stand and you can move it easy. Anyway, it has everything same as a normal pc (usb, LAN, wireless, headphone, micro, webcam, DVD ...)

That's probably one of the BIGGEST and HEAVIEST luggables I've seen since 1988.

Nonetheless, looks like you had a lot of fun building it. Nice job!

I gave it an 8/10 only because of the wiring and cooling. Otherwise a 10/10. I love the idea and how everything is integrated, especially the LCD.
