A DEV concept project.
We have some awesome brains here at Dev.lets think of a way to
have a Custom system that has all the power of a desktop with easy transportability. No off the shelf cases need apply. No batteries needed (lol) Think out of the box! A Portable Desk Top computer that all you have to do is plug into power. Must have built in 19"LCD (min) Must have top of the line duel core CPU with upgrade possibility. Must be wireless and dsl and aircard. Must have upgradeable Video card top of the line. Must have at least 4 powered 2.0 usb ports. Must have hot swapable HDDs 2 min. Must be able to use multi OS. Must have sound system built in. Must have video camera and voice built in. Must have wireless keyboard and mouse. Must be built to travel, up/down time min. and protected from damage. Any other must haves PM me and I will add to the list.

Hmm where is stang when you need him... Hes building a computer inside of a medic bag, adding a monitor and a camera and such are actually not to difficult to add on.
Anyway why do you want this, I mean hot swappable drives, built in video etc...

How is this thing different than a laptop? Now only if DIY laptop projects were so easy..
Macs came close with their Mac-mini. Shuttle PCs are also good. I think you should be able to fit all the stuff in a attache or a office briefcase. Cut the top part of briefcase to fit LCD there. Cover the motherboard and assembly with a plastic sheet, and fit a keyboard there. The major thing now will be to measure up dimensions and find a proper briefcase. So how does it sound? If it's any good, be known I have never worked on a case mod before.. Bleh..has been done before.  Linky: http://www.aoaforums.com/frontpage/content/view/157/31/However if you find the right size you should still be able to fit the LCD. That's different and my own idea.

Brainstorming Thread! Think outside of the BOX!
I want something NEW!, with all the BRAINS in DEV this should be easy. This is for us computer people on the road that are tired of not having a REAL computer to use. Laptops are OK for somethings, BUT I want to game and have all my home toys on my computer and I do not want to spend 3000 and up! I do not want to spend hours setting up a desktop either! Easy set up! Bells and whistles under 2000 US. (if you can game the top end games with good frames it will do anything) PS.. be glad I did not ask for a printer/scanner/fax built in too Last edited by cy : March 25th, 2007 at 07:23 AM.

Actually, I've debated building a computer into a soft-sided rollaround suitcase for some time... the only thing missing would be the display, and with an LCD, the could be thrown on top easily for transport.
