My Attempt At An Xbox Mini, inspired by ghostavel's mini Options

What program did you use to change the letters on the splash screen, XBtool seems to only be able to change the colours.

Woah... just been reading through this entire topic and ave been immersed into making one of these... when is this going to be completed, i want to see the final results!

Well i don't know for sure, there's so much taking priority right now. I want to finish it but most of my time is taken up with work, then in any spare time i seem to be repairing laptops and iPhone's for friends and colleagues, then there's the thousand other projects I'm trying to finish...there's just not enough hours in the day!

I'm glad to inspire anyone to create one of these mini xbox's, if you have any questions please ask and i will endeavour to assist you. Ghostavel should be your first port of call though as he did this first.

One day this mini will be finished, although that may be a while yet

Sadly i am considering putting this up for sale. I just don't have the time or space to continue working on it.

It would come with the following (if anyone is interested):

(v1 i think) trusty modded 1ghz 128mb motherboard tsop'd
almost completed custom acrylic laser cut case
complete spare set of laser cut plastic to make another case (still has protective film on it)
PICO psu
laptop style mains adapter (uk plug)
laptop harddrive
a sickmods atx to xbox adapter (unsure of working condition though)
the 3 capacitors i removed from the motherboard (in case you just want the motherboard back working in a standard xbox case
The aeropad mini wifi pcb
an xbox to component adapter
some acrylic rod to make internal support posts from
could even throw in an xbox eeprom reader/writer

If anyones interested PM me. I'd rather it go to someone who wants to get it working, preferably in the UK as shipping would cost a lot

I don't think I'm alone in saying this:
If I only had the money, I'd buy it in an instant! This is one of the coolest projects I've ever seen on X-S. There's been crazy arcade cabinet boxes, car-installs, custom cases of all shapes and colors, but yours and ghostavel's are seriously two of my favorites. I'm a softy for mods that look like they could have come out of a factory. Ones that have a sense of style and form-factor.
I myself have an old case swap project that needs still countless hours of TLC, right now in need of a re-do of a 128mb upgrade, that I would love to get finished but working a 40 hr work week plus school doesn't allow much time for non-essentials.
If you do end up selling it, I hope it goes to a good owner and they post updates on its progress

Thanks man i hope it goes to someone who wants to finish it too. If no one wants to do that i'd rather keep it and hope that one day i have some time to complete it. I don't really want to part it out..
