It’s a game console! It’s a laptop!

This modder named Ben Heckendorn (a.k.a. ‘Heck’) took apart a Sony Playstation 3, took the bits and used them to make a working, portable PS3 laptop, pictured above. Pretty cool, no?
Features:
60GB PS3
17″ HDTV 720p screen with HDMI connection
built-in keyboard
stereo amplifier
weight: 7.26kg
dimensions: 431.8mm x 349.3mm x 76.2mm
The unit apparently is not for sale, but will be auctioned off for charity.
I wonder how Sony will react to people pushing their existing gaming technology like this. Can a factory-made, consumer-market version be far behind? I’d love to see how bosses around the world would react to team members bringing one of these to their meetings.
