I always feel like these are not so portable at all. Its like an interesting techinical concept, but as soon as you flip it over and see the disc spinning in the open air.... so many things could go wrong. I could never take my Border Down GD-ROM and play it on this system. The thing is practically like a wood sander Laughing

The glowing DC LED swirl is pretty impressive.

The only problem with mods like this that I've seen is the weight. I bet you can barely play that thing for 10 minutes without your arms staring to ache Laughing

yeah he would have to replace some heavy parts with newer lighter ones. i highly doubt anyone is going to do that. even if they did i cant see them being able to cut to much of the weight off. Sad
