blackburn, think you can make a video showing off all the goodies along with adding all the goodies you've done to make this thing look as amazing as it does?

EDIT: Maybe you can even consider making a tutorial on how to make a sweet water cooled xbox as well ;)

Just curious, was that case a pre-made case you bought somewhere or did you have it custom made?

EDIT: Also where is your hard drive located? I cant seem to find it in the case?

oh ok...I wasn't thinking you bought a brand new xbox for it but yea. Do you think it would be that hard to get a custom case made at a machine shop to fit an xbox and :censored:?
