X-Top Mark II - Finished!

[TheTwoJ]

Here we go again!

In early April Rug and I were reactivated via commission to build a second X-Top. The whole build process went much smoother as a whole, though we did still run into our fair share of small snags along the way. Special thanks to collinE for his help with the troubleshooting of the cutting of the monitor boards.

Features:
-New Jasper 360
-120GB HDD
-N-capable Wireless Adapter
-Ethernet Port
-2 USB Ports
-Switchable VGA Output
-Pushbutton Potentiometer Volume Controls
-Gateway 1775w 17" Widescreen Monitor
-Apple USB Keyboard
-Single Cord Power Supply

Advantages over last unit:
-Vastly improved airflow due to eliminating the monitor inverter board
-Quieter due to having half as many fans
-Rounded edges, sleeker look
-Single cord between lid and base
-Blue LED Ring of Light (seriously, it's cool)
-No power button for audio, auto power on when plugged in

Now for the fun stuff

I like your idea of using the apple keyboard, it's a pretty thin keypad.

He was obviously saying that that was a dumb joke to make.

I don't think you guys are reading Drue's joke the right way.

Anyways, great laptop! One of these days I'll have to get one of these.

Yes.
Anyways, amazing job, I really like the mac keyboard. It fits in nicely with everything else.
