Lawton's LCD Computer


I came up with this idea while thinking of other things to do than studying for year 12 exams in 2004. At that time the box for my old computer took up half of the leg room under my desk and I had two 15" CRT's on my desk. I needed more space I thought, and came up with this:


My requirements were to make an awesome machine for playing games and doing anything I could possibly need to while using as little space as possible. It took me most of the year 12 holiday (making money to pay for it before christmas and building after) to make it, and a little of the mid year uni break to finish it. I don't want to give away all my secrets to it, but here's a list of specs, features and some photos, enjoy
