This is a pretty cool mod. Guy took apart an XBOX 360 and a PS3 and custom built them into a PC case. It's the best of both worlds!

That looks like one heck of a risky thing to do. Expensive if it fails, anyway.
Nice idea but I think that case takes up a heck more space than just stacking a 360 and a PS3 together as is! :) Also its not the prettiest case in the world.

P.S. Seriously, if you are PC builder and know your way around electronics, this isn't that hard. I've taken games systems apart before. Just have to be a little careful.

Yeah, but from the article, the guy seemed to admit he pretty much didn't know what he was doing

My concern wouldn't be getting it apart and in the case, I'd think the main issue would be cooling.
I'd say he gets much better cooling with that case and fans than the tight form factor game cases.
Based on the temperature readouts on the front of the case I imagine he took it into account :)
