    Please post some pics if you do manage the window mod, I'm thinking of doing the same thing but would have no idea how.

    sounds good, but the only thing is that in most laptops they are packed tight.. and the locking strip might not have enough room to fit

    you can buy glow wire that runs offa AA batteries (3v). so you could run it offa the batteries if you were worried about battery life. other than LEDs theres not much more you can do. im starting to get into case art. not just painting, i mean like drawing and paintings on the thing. i found a badass optimus prime pencil drawing that i make into a big decal. but my window isnt big enough on my PC so its going into my car lol.

    your mad

    moding laptops are dodgy...

    i started it on my toshiba satellite..... it died... they aren't as hardy as desktops,,, and if u kill a component... thats the end of the laptop, wheras on a desktop, just rush of with a family member's credit card and replace the part u broke... :)

    I think if you're not willing to toast it, you should stop right now.

    I hope we are wrong too! Just 10 times? I would measure until my hands bled!
