    GBA Gameboy XP PC




    Some inventive oddbod has successfully fitted a fully functioning Windows XP PC inside an old Nintendo Gameboy. The device can be connected to a monitor via a normal VGA port, while you can browse the Internet using the built-in network connection. What’s more, they’ve added two USB ports and replaced the A and B buttons with LEDs showing power and activity. Windows XP is installed on a Compact Flash card that’s conveniently inserted into the Gameboy’s cart slot.

    Next step is hopefully a nice new built-in LCD colour screen.

    i know they have almost achieved the impossible there but the build quality is a bit shit IMO and could have been tidied up a bit for the photos - even if it is work in progress. theres silicone all over on one shot and all the ports are wonky in every pic. shoddy but still clever, although the actual point (except the xbox 360 laptop one) always escapes me for these projects
