My Macbook was involved in an incident, and as a laptop, no longer functions.
I've ripped out the logic board out of the unibody casing, hooked up some stuff, and behold, it still boots.
Any suggestions on what I can stuff it in? It would be a little cool to make a little home theater Mac. I'm not very good with fabrication, but I'm willing to give something a shot.
A few caveats about the way its running now...
-Airport doesn't seem to work (where is the airport card located?)
-It did boot very slowly, off a fresh install. Not sure what this means just yet.
-Anyway to power the thing on without the standard power button? the keyboard was taken out of logic board, and trying to get it back in was a pain, and it looks a bit clumsy. Currently using a USB Mouse and Keyboard
Here are some pictures of the incident and where I'm at now.
