Regarding custom jobs…

Just a quick note, if you’re emailing me to ask about a custom job or Xbox 360 laptop mod, here’s a few things to keep in mind. These may seem a bit terse, but since I gloss over a lot of the requests I get anyway I thought I’d pre-prune them with these guidelines. Follow these to increase your chances of a reply. 1) The delay time for anything is 2-3 weeks minimum, considering the other things I’m working on. I will not make any more N64 projects period (that system is too easy to break) PS2… perhaps with a lot of persuasion. 2) The average cost of a custom job is $400 (design / labor / case) + parts. 3) The Xbox 360 laptop mod is extremely time consuming and thus has a cost in the thousands of dollars. Also the lead time would be a few months (January at the earliest) 4) I do not furnish custom instructions or how-tos beyond what is already on this site. However you can buy my book or see my columns in Engadget. Alright well just thought I’d get that off my chest. Look for some new projects coming later today! (Or maybe tomorrow)

One thought on “Regarding custom jobs…”

  1. Would love an Xbox 360 Laptop made, but would love to make one myself, me and sum mates are thinkin of doing it as our own project, a better knowledge type thing, but what would u say the pricing of an xbox laptop would be, and why wouldnt you take these ideas to MS to get them mass produce, but you get a cut of the money, would be a great idea and many people would love it…
