Eddie Zarrick’s phenomenal LCD-within-a-logo MacBook mod was as technically impressive at it was gorgeous. Now he has posted a thorough how-to, which is fantastic for anyone who’s got a superabundance of MacBooks, cash and courage.
The materials list and building procedure actually appear somewhat manageable, and if you’re comfortable wielding a soldering iron you probably won’t be intimidated. The most surprising part of this, though, is the price: $US200 for a 4.3-inch LCD, and about $US10 for a clear MacBook logo replacement. It’s not peanuts, but $US210 isn’t bad for a mod that just a few weeks ago stole the hearts of Mac fanboys the world over. [Eddie Zarick]
